Scientific Illustrations – Ornithological ThemesI have the opportunity to design visualizations for various special issues on behalf of the Swiss Ornithological Institute. These are scientific illustrations that convey different aspects of ornithological topics. The visualization shown here displays a section of the two-page overview of the nine native woodpecker species. Client: Swiss Ornithological Institutemstuenzi.ch

Infographic Series – WSL Magazine DiagonalIn collaboration with the editorial team, we developed a new visual identity for the infographic page to convey complex content clearly and comprehensibly, in keeping with the character of Diagonal magazine. Since the redesign, we have been creating a new infographic page for each of the biannual issues, focusing on the respective theme. Client: Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL Collaboration: with Daniel Röttele via our shared platform infografik.chmstuenzi.ch

Infographic – Vatican CityI had the opportunity to design a two-page infographic for the election of the new pope. The illustrated view shows not only St. Peter's Basilica and the Sistine Chapel but also all the other buildings and gardens of the Vatican. The visualization shown here is a section of the double-sided visualization. Client: Forum-Magazinmstuenzi.ch

Illustrations and Infographics – People on the RunIn this project, we combined hand-drawn illustrations, informative maps, and diagrams to convey information on the topic of displacement and migration.

Animated Explanatory Video – World on Fire: The Global Wildfire CrisisThis animated educational film explains the global wildfire crisis to a broad, non-specialist audience and highlights what we can do about it.

Interactive Exhibition Display – Sustainable Electricity and the Future of EnergyA room-sized, interactive exhibition wall introduces visitors to the exhibition at the Höngg Power Plant to topics related to electricity and energy. Through a playful approach, various animated storylines explain the interplay of renewable energy sources, their importance, and energy-saving tips. I had the opportunity to design and implement the narrative for the entire wall, as well as the illustrations and animations. Client: ewz | Electricity Works of the City of Zurichmstuenzi.ch

Visual Facial Reconstruction – Jörg JenatschI had the opportunity to create a visual facial reconstruction by Jörg Jenatsch for the cover of an archaeological publication. The reconstruction was based on an X-ray image of the skull found in the grave, data on soft tissue thicknesses, and a contemporary oil portrait.

Medical Illustration – PancreasVarious visualizations on the topic of the pancreas were created for Pankreas Klinik Schweiz.
