Biography

Raphael Buholzer a Swiss born Graphic Designer. After many years of enthusiastically creating artwork as a hobby, I ultimately decided to turn that hobby into an actual entrepreneurial life project. My love for structure and passion for details are constant influences on my design pratice. My goal is driven by making a strong visual impact by combining various styles and techniques as a way to follow an idea and in clarifying the content of each project. Across the years I gained design experience through my work as a webdesigner as well as working within different environments. For the future I will channeling my relentless passion into creating great experiences and real connections through the filter of design, and be able to explore various fields through collaboration and relentless making.
