Hi, I’m Leo Schwarz. German Canadian Designer and Strategist living in Toronto.
Bridging the worlds of strategy and design.

My drive lies in creating work that is both meaningful and impactful, whether I'm working on brand strategy, brand identity, or collaborating on design projects.
When it comes to creative problem-solving, I believe that having an open mind and a willingness to learn is key. It's important to approach each project with a fresh perspective and a genuine curiosity about the subject matter. As a considerate listener, I understand that everyone has their own unique perspective and valuable insights to bring to the table. By taking the time to truly listen to others and consider their opinions, we can come up with more well-rounded solutions that truly address the needs of everyone involved.
