Henry Steiner is an Austrian graphic designer based in Hong Kong. Hailed as the “Father of Hong Kong graphical design”, he pioneered the expression of identity through branding, particularly in Asia where his skill for incorporating Eastern cultural symbols into Werstern design garnered acclaim.
After working on HSBC's annual report for about a decade, he would go on and develop a corporate identity for the bank.
