ABOUT
Servus!
I’m Moritz Auer,
Brand Designer & Art Director,
focused on sports, brand identities and campaigns.
I build brands through strategy, design, art direction and photography, with a focus on sports and the culture around it. I enjoy finding the idea at the heart of a project and carrying it through to the final detail.
Before starting Moritz Auer Studio, I spent over four years at FC Bayern München, working on everything from marketing campaigns to a complete club rebrand. Today, I work with clubs, athletes and companies of all sizes to define what they stand for and bring it to life through distinct identities and campaigns.
Away from the studio, you’ll usually find me on my bike or making coffee. My cappuccino is pretty good. My latte art is still a work in progress.

Resume
Founder
MORITZ AUER STUDIO
→ founded in 2025
I started Moritz Auer Studio to work independently across brand strategy, design, art direction and photography, with a focus on sports and the culture around it.
My work often starts with an idea, a pitch or a concept.
I enjoy figuring out what a brand wants to say, finding a clear direction and turning it into an identity or campaign. Sometimes that means building something from scratch. Sometimes it means bringing a new perspective to what’s already there.
Along the way, I’ve worked with clubs, brands and creative teams including Eintracht Frankfurt, FC Bayern Basketball, DAZN, Sports360, PitchThis, Suuapinga, Barbrain, SWR, DJE Kapital AG and Hormonic.
Whether it’s a first pitch or the final execution, I like being involved, working closely with people and making things that feel right for the brand.

Collaborating with Elias Hintermayr, I had the pleasure of contributing to a booth presentation for Hochschule München during MAKE-Munich, led by Silke Langenberg and Xuyen Dam. The exhibition took place in early March at Zenith in the northern part of Munich, and we worked under tight deadlines to develop templates for posters and establish a cohesive visual identity for the booth. Operating under the theme "PLAY THINK MAKE," which marked the kickoff for the Munich Creative Business Week, we also created postcards for all visitors to the booth.
