About Moritz Stefaner
I live and breathe data visualization —
as an independent designer,
consultant and researcher.
I help organizations, researchers and businesses to find truth and beauty in relevant and meaningful data. I have consulting relationships with clients like OECD, Google News Initiative, Salesforce, Deutsche Bahn and the Max Planck Research Society.
I am grateful to have an expert network of collaborators to support me in my projects. I have worked with world class individuals like Dominikus Baur, Jan Willem Tulp, Christian Laesser and Flavio Gortana.
How could we work together? Let me know!
Bio
Moritz Stefaner helps organizations find truth and beauty in relevant and meaningful data.
An independent designer, consultant and researcher with a background in Cognitive Science and Interface Design, he has spent two decades making complex, large-scale data legible, useful — and beautiful. His clients include the OECD, the WHO, the World Economic Forum, the Google News Initiative, Salesforce, Deutsche Bahn and the German federal government.
Landmark projects range from the OECD Better Life Index and Germany’s official COVID-19 vaccination dashboard to the WHO’s data design language and AI-driven design tooling for Salesforce.
He is the record winner of the Information is Beautiful Awards, with further honours from National Geographic and Malofiej, and his work has been shown at the Venice Biennale of Architecture, SIGGRAPH and Ars Electronica. He co-hosts the acclaimed Data Stories podcast and keynotes conferences such as Eurovis, OpenVisConf and IEEE VIS.
