Stefan Sagmeister (b. 1962 Bregenz, Austria; lives New York) is a
designer who blends typography and imagery in striking, fresh, ambitious, and
unsettling ways.
Stefan studied graphic design at the University of Applied Arts Vienna.
He later received a Fulbright scholarship to study at the Pratt Institute in
New York. Having influenced the culture of design over the past decade, he is
perhaps best known for his album covers for Talking Heads, Lou Reed, OK Go, and
The Rolling Stones as well as innovative campaigns that have entered the public consciousness for companies such as Levis.
