From khdesign to echd®

We are moving.

Goodbye lighthouse. Thank you for the last 45 great years. We're taking a lot from you, but it's time for a new look. A new name that finally describes exactly what we are. Goodbye khdesign - from now on we are echd.

Why echd?

Of course we want to make great designs. But we also want to work in a meaningful and future-oriented way. That's why we not only make brands look great, but also help them to achieve a strong brand positioning with an authentic brand experience.



We write echd with a d because we want to surprise. We feel comfortable being different. Because with us you get original design concepts instead of uniformity. Surprisingly, the “d” also happens to stand for design, for dialog and even for dachshund. Lucky for us.

echd, really?

Yep! A lot of things are new with us, but nothing will change for you. If you still can't believe it, just give us a call. Your contact persons will remain the same.

We mourn the loss of Noam

Sometimes there are moments in life that you never expect to happen - and this is one of them. Our long-time colleague Noam sadly passed away suddenly and unexpectedly last Saturday.

We are not just mourning the loss of a colleague - Noam was so much more to us: he was a friend, an advisor and always there when we needed support, and he shared with us his dream of sailing his own boat around the world. He firmly believed that we could hit the big lottery jackpot together and encouraged us to take long walks during our lunch break. His precise eye, his passion for good design and his enormous sense of duty and at the same time relaxed manner, characterized Noam.Noam, we miss you so much.our thoughts and our deepest sympathy are with his wife, his two children and his whole family, to whom we now wish a lot of strength.

Looking to the future: Management changes at echd

Since November, there has been a change in the management at echd: Max and Lisa Wenzel have both decided to take a new direction and step down from the management of the agency. We would like to thank them both for seven years of passion, creativity and strategic development that have made echd what it is today.

Our success story will continue - with Nadine Hartmann, who will continue to lead the agency as Managing Director, and Paul Valentiner, who has been part of the management team since July 2024. Together, they have ambitious plans for the future:
➡ Expanding our offering beyond packaging
➡ The expansion of our “Future Media” department

We are particularly proud of what we have achieved together recently, such as the realignment of Dentinox, the modernization of the Chantré brand and our success at the German Design Award.

One thing remains clear to us: change is an opportunity to continue to grow. We look forward to writing the next chapters together with you and our great customers!
