Korel is a swiss graphic design studio by Sarah Iller and Nicolas Wagner. We do websites, posters, logos, and more for individuals, institutions, and companies. 

Korel

Korel explores the correlation between content and appearance. We ask why, before how and share a belief in ecological, social, cultural and economic purpose. What motivates us is creating visual expressions that bring our clients clarity and pride in their own work.

Approach

Each new project begins with curiosity and in-depth research. From letterpress to AI, we choose and build the right tools to create bespoke visual languages, designed to work across different media. For photography, video, and writing, we collaborate with specialists from our network.
