Thomas Kronbichler is a Graphic Designer and co-founder of Studio Mut, one of the most influential graphic design studios in Italy. Working at the intersection of 3 cultures and even more languages — Südtirol is in Italy, but borders to Austria and Switzerland — their visual language balances northern rigour with Italian flair. He shares his passion for design in lectures and workshops from London to Lima and leads a Visual Communication class at University of Bolzano. Thomas has an obsession with weird drinks, so if you want to be his friend, get him a can of luke-warm watermelon-flavoured iced tea, mixed with cheap rum.
