Welcome to my webspace, Stefan Schultze, awardwinning Art Director, Berlin

DESIGN

Aloha. Now that we´re on the same page: Hi, I´m awardwinning DESIGNER STEFAN SCHULTZE from Berlin. Nice to meet you! Here are a few examples of my creations over the decades.

Also check the news in my field of expertise since quite a few of those AI thiefs got successfully sued. Ask your local responsible folks to adopt laws just like for instance Australia (and in March UK too making a u-turn in favour of its artists) did for its writers and illustrators. Enjoy.

PS: just added some more illustrations, infographics, art from that CHANEL project and the story how I once made a twitterbackground for NASA′s COOLCOSMOS, but also some Logos, Signets & icons and VIDEO to this page.

:: SIR PETER USTINOV Foundation & German Football League DFL Foundation a.m.m. supported this report and the very first BERLIN INCLUSION SUMMIT (Erster BERLINER INKLUSIONSKONGRESS, u.a. with Aktion Mensch und Wolfram Kons von "RTL Wir helfen Kindern" und vielen anderen). I created lots of materials for this and developed a large set of pictograms, that a) raised attention beyond the event leading to requests for the icons & pictograns and was b) also in part used for later publications of the company. Both report and event became a big success bringing people together. You find a few more illustrations and details about it on my illustration page.

a detail from one of the Social Impact Navigator Book Kursbuch Wirkung in German series that I designed, layouted and illustrated. The main book is at 150.000 copies as of early 2025 for the german version and had follow ups in several language versions. Before the first german edition was printed I told the team my vision to have an english one. It happened very soon. And the first german edition was already gone after 6 weeks. Quality content. Humanmade.
