Max's design practice is rooted in his fascination with systems: systems of symbols, identity, and, in a recursive sense, systems within systems. He believes that a container or medium is as significant, if not more so, than the content it holds. For Max, graphic design is a means to craft visual containers that convey narratives across varied contexts.
