Atelier 1771 is an independent design studio for brands navigating change.

All projects are realized by experienced designers working directly and collaboratively — no detours, no egos. We believe in entrepreneurial thinking, short decision paths, and that good design emerges where skill, trust, and exchange come together. Whoever works on a project remains your point of contact.

Outstanding work grows from personal commitment, curiosity, experience, and passion.

Founded by Heidrun Angerer, a designer and creative director with over 30 years of international experience, Atelier 1771 combines strategic clarity with design depth. Discovered and shaped in the context of Peter Schmidt, her work in the lifestyle and luxury sector includes some of the most influential brand relaunches of recent decades.
