Gaël Faure

Art Director

“Flying is learning to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” — Douglas Adams.
If there’s one thing Gaël Faure believes in, it’s the creative potential of so-called mistakes and the formidable capacity for innovation of the human imagination. For this half-Spanish, quarter-Russian, quarter-French designer, the spirit of collaboration is in his DNA. Confident in his own tastes and artistic choices, Gaël espouses an unapologetically lateral and respectful approach to creative management, where personal involvement and teamwork inspire collective success. After earning his degree in Visual Communications at the esteemed ECAL in 2009, Gaël went on to hone his skills at various agencies in London and Berlin before co-founding the studio Carnal Faure Verona with Yanis Carnal and Raphaël Verona. Prior to joining HØRDE, he spent two years as an Art Director at the Geneva headquarters of the international creative agency Base Design. Based in Lausanne, Gaël has also taught at both ECAL and EPFL.

Chris Gautschi

Art Director

Growing up and studying in La Chaux-de-Fonds, watchmaking capital and the city of Corbusier, likely had a hand in developing Chris’s passion for all things related to architecture and design. Chris may be a strong believer in learning the basics, but make no mistake, he knows how to break the rules. An avid book collector, Chris launched his career in the Swiss cultural sector designing publications and promotional materials. These days, you will likely run into him at some sort of cultural event or exhibition; but if you really want to find Chris, look no further than the forefront of the latest art and design trends. Luckily for HØRDE, he is always eager to share his findings with the team and our clients.

Louis fuses his love of music with motion and graphics design to create quality content for our clients.

Nora Perez

Graphic Designer

Nora’s limitless creativity is most eloquently expressed through her illustrations. After graduating from Eracom with a degree in Graphic Design, she spent the next four years working for the famous Montreux Jazz Festival. Nora’s tenure there did not confine her to the world of music. On the contrary, she continued to put her talents to good use across a diverse portfolio of projects, including the creation of the visual identity for Gin des Mamies.

Fabian is by far the youngest member of our team. He is also the tallest.
