Erik Brandt is a graphic designer and educator who has been active since 1994. 

He is a member of the Alliance Graphique Internationale (AGI) and was appointed International President in 2022. He curated Ficciones Typografika, a project dedicated to typographic exploration in a public space. Educated internationally, his career began as a cartoonist in Japan in 1994, and has since found focus largely in print media.

He maintains a small graphic design studio, Typografika (Visual Communication und Konditorei). His work has been published and exhibited internationally and he has also received recognition for his very, very silly short films.
