Welcome! This site is the nexus of charles buchwald & friends, with links to our internet exploits elsewhere, some history, some link collections, and other notables. We do our best to update it regularly, so it has the most current info on our cyber-exploits.
In case you are wondering: Charles Buchwald is a design professional and inventor who has had the good fortune to work with the likes of BMW, Disney and Pillsbury, as well as other Fortune 500 companies, government agencies in the US and Canada… and more than a few “mom and pop” companies, too.
Areas of particular expertise include design for consumer products, including furniture, tools and outdoor recreation equipment.
Some of Charles’ more memorable projects include museum exhibits for the Minnesota Historical Society and the Minnesota Children’s Museum; best selling clothing and tool design for Park Tool USA; coinvention of the first sea floor visualization software; coinvention of first-of-its-kind peer-to-peer educational software; and coinvention of a new snowsport with SEI Industries and HangBoard Snoflight, Inc.
Charles is a member of the Graphic Designers of Canada, and have produced an extensive variety of print and web projects. Elegant design and precise typography are areas of particular expertise and interest.
With many years of experience in professional photography, behind the lens, in the digital darkroom, and as an art director and creative director, this discipline figures prominently in the breadth and depth of my extensive portfolio. I have been using digital cameras since the original Apple QuickTake 100 in 1996, and continue to use new and innovative equipment and processes in my current photography projects.
