Crafting Visual Stories that Captivate

I'm Massimo Künstler, a passionate freelance art director, graphic designer, and photographer. I don't just create interesting visuals – I craft visual stories that resonate with your audience and elevate your brand.

Your Vision, My Expertise

My dedication lies in helping you achieve your creative goals. Whether you're an individual or a business of any size, I offer personalized services tailored to your unique needs. I take a collaborative approach, working closely with you to understand your vision and brand essence.

Innovation that Delivers Results

By combining my design expertise with a client-focused approach, I deliver innovative solutions that capture the hearts and minds of your target audience.

From student designer to creative leader, I've honed my craft across graphic design, art direction and photography. Early freelance work in Rome led to Los Angeles experience and a return fueled by the digital revolution. I launched Künstler Studio, then The Looking Glass Factory, before returning to freelance with MKsite.com. A decade of teaching at IED Rome further enriched my creative vision. Today, I bring this experience and passion to every project.

With over 1500 projects under my belt, I bring a wealth of experience and a passion for exploration to every collaboration. My diverse clientele has honed my ability to deliver unique, impactful solutions across a wide range of services.

I can offer a variety of services, both digital and analogue, to guide the visual narrative for your brand. From brand identity to publication design, from web design to poster design, from lifestyle photography to world reportage.

My photographic gaze embraces both the candid and the curated. I thrive on capturing the raw energy of street and documentary photography, delving into the complexities of human experience. At the same time, I relish crafting polished and captivating lifestyle visuals that elevate your brand's social media presence. This versatility allows me to tell your story in its most authentic and visually compelling form.

"Künstler" in German means "artist." Being born with such a name already comes with a certain level of responsibility. But that's nothing compared to the weight of my nickname, "Kü," which I didn't fully understand until I looked into it.

In Japanese philosophy, Kū is the fifth element, representing things beyond our everyday experience, specifically those composed of pure energy. Physically, Kū represents spirit, thought, and creative energy. It encompasses our ability to think, communicate, and create. It's also associated with power, creativity, spontaneity, and inventiveness.

I've always wondered if this is my destiny or a curse.
