LIFESTYLE

The Brothers Mueller are a collaborative twin duo. These new dandies aim to subvert the traditional aesthetic of digital art by subverting the cold, unfinished, raw, and very masculine aesthetic of most digital art. Inspired by the flamboyant and refined dandy of the 19th century they feel a close connection to these men who would strive to imitate aristocratic life despite being raised in a middle-class background. To them, ornamentation in digital art is a backlash against the masculine image of technology and machines.

PROFESSIONAL CAREER

The Brothers Mueller are designers, lead programmers and new technology developers at Studio Mercury. With over 10 years of programming and design experience, the Brothers Mueller have developed solutions for real-time digital installations, mobile and tablet device applications and web-based sites for 10 to 1000+ users. The Brothers Mueller received their BFAs in Graphic Design from The Myers School of Art at the University of Akron, and later their MFA in Digital Media from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2010.

Their experience in digital technology has empowered a wide range of clients in fashion, lifestyle, advertising, corporate and non-profit institutions. In 2010, The Brothers Mueller joined a small hand-picked creative team at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia to help assemble their first iPad publication “Boundless Beauty.” Since the launch, the project has gained international press including Time Magazine’s Top 10 Everything of 2010.
