We are Maresch & Sturm—a duo infernale with a love for 2D animation, lively illustrations, and visual fun! Based in Vienna, we see ourselves as the friendly studio next door—always up for a coffee and a creative challenge.

Whether it’s a campaign, an explainer, or branded content, we make stories move. We love bold visuals, sharp storytelling, and a healthy dose of creative mischief. Every project gets a distinct look, built to engage and surprise.

Collaboration is at the heart of what we do. We team up with agencies, brands, and creative minds from different fields to bring ideas to life. From first scribbles to final frame, we keep the process smooth, exciting, and fun.

Got an exciting project in mind? We’re all ears! Drop by, grab an espresso, and and let’s create something brilliant together.
