Schwarz+Matt

We’re a 30-person brand and design agency building the brands of tomorrow. From our offices in Dortmund, Cologne, and Münster, we support ambitious companies end-to-end and with a clear focus on their needs — from strategy to scalable growth. Whether it’s a new brand, a relaunch, or a targeted refresh.

At the core of everything we do is the Schwarz+Matt® Brand System. A proven process that seamlessly connects strategy, design, and implementation.

Our services are structured across four interconnected stages:

Brand Strategy – defining positioning, structure, and story as the foundation.

Brand Design – crafting a consistent and distinctive visual identity.

Brand Implementation – embedding the brand through guidelines, rollouts, and systems.

Brand Scaling – continuously evolving and growing the brand across all channels.

With over 10 years of experience and 100+ projects, we bring deep expertise across industries like industrials, software, and healthcare. As an official Frontify partner, we also build scalable digital brand infrastructures for mid-sized companies and hidden champions.

We create brands that stand out — and drive growth.
