Studio Marie Cuennet is a graphic design studio based in Zurich, founded in 2014 by Marie Cuennet.
The studio works across print and digital, developing visual identities, publications, posters, websites and exhibition graphics for independent businesses, artists, brands and cultural institutions.

Its work spans culture, art, music, publishing, education and socially engaged projects. The studio is particularly interested in typography, visual systems and colour experimentation.
At the heart of its practice is the translation of content into visual form: finding clear and appropriate ways to communicate ideas and make information accessible. From books to websites, identities to the occasional thing that is difficult to put into a category, the studio enjoys finding the right form for each project.

Alongside her studio practice, Marie teaches at the SfGBB school in Biel, in the Grafikfachklasse.

Former interns and collaborators:
Julia Herzog, Federica Zanetti, Dominique Wyss, Gina Burri.

We occasionally offer internships and positions. Portfolios are always welcome, although we may not be able to respond to every enquiry.
