Stüssy Tschudin RGD

Principal + Creative Director

I grew up in Switzerland, where I worked as a Swiss banker and was the youngest stock trader at the Basel Stock Exchange. While I was wearing suits during the day, I was living out my creative side as a graffiti artist at night.

When I was 21, I joined Up With People, an international, intercultural group of young people from all over the world, touring to a different city every couple of days, staying with host families, helping with community service and performing a broadway style musical show.

During that time I met my wife Tamara who brought me to Canada. I also realized I needed a career change and focus on my creativity and decided to go back to school to study Graphic Design.

In 2005, my two business partners and I started Forge and the rest is history…
