Designer Profile
Costa Rica
Oliver Schütte is a distinguished creative director honored by the A' Design Award. Their portfolio demonstrates expertise in design and visual communication.
I was educated as an architect, which is a profession that naturally interacts with a lot of other professionals who are related to the process of planning and building. Through personal drive and external influences, I started to look way beyond that group of people to think about development in a broader and global sense. I was lucky to work with a series of masters and colleagues whom I admire and who encouraged me in pursuing that path. My own office now focuses on breaking those boundaries of single professions or perspectives in order to co-create through our interdisciplinary work methodology. We design for development with participatory and multi-stakeholder approaches, which has led us to a very interesting variety of topics and scales that we deal with on a daily basis. The results are often surprising and reaffirming in the sense of finding meaning and added value by working together.
The color palettes presented here were extracted from Schütte's award-winning portfolio. Every color combination reflects the unique aesthetic honored by the jury at the A' Design Award.
