With their bold and daring designs, the Olympic Games in Mexico in 1968 and in Munich in 1972 were high points in the world of visual branding according to Daniel Perraudin. This opinion certainly enjoys majority support amongst his peers and we also strongly agree. As founder and partner of Capitale Berlin/Vienna—a studio for branding, wayfinding systems and editorial design—Daniel is a proven specialist for complex (typo)graphic projects.

His expertise is also rooted in his broad professional experience, Daniel studied Information Design at Stuttgart Media University and FH Joanneum Graz and then worked at KMS Team in corporate design and typography for clients such as BMW, Canyon, MAN, Porsche and Sky. He later obtained a TypeMedia Master’s degree in Type Design at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague. He has been passing on his knowledge to students in Graz for several years. Daniel’s first typeface Parka was successfully published by the legendary Font Bureau in 2010.
