Leonie Wiertz – Art Director for Schwarz+Matt® Brands

Leonie Wiertz is Art Director in the Brand team and is jointly responsible for everything to do with visual brand identity.

Leo is originally from Krefeld, but has lived in Düsseldorf for a few years now. After training as a design assistant, she studied communication design, including a semester abroad in Milan.

It was there that her focus on brand design really solidified. Since then, everything has revolved around strong brands, smart color concepts, good type design and logos with character.

In recent years, she has gained experience in brand development, including 2 years in the branding and design team of an international e-commerce company in the Netherlands and 2.5 years with a focus on branding and storytelling in real estate marketing. She is now looking forward to applying her expertise to other sectors.

Because what she loves most about working at the agency is the variety of projects – and the fact that ideas are not only implemented here, but can be completely rethought.

In her free time, Leo enjoys creative activities where she can design freely. Painting and experimenting with color in particular provide her with a balance to her everyday working life.
