My name is Julia, and I’m an Art Director at Forsman & Bodenfors.

I think an idea is nothing without craft, and craft is nothing without an idea. A design draft can sometimes become the entire idea, and sometimes a big idea needs to be done justice through design. Either way, to create an emotional reaction you need to combine the two. Maybe that sounds a bit basic, but I truly believe that advertising can be something people want to take part in. And have opinions about. Whether it’s good or bad. Whether it’s my best friend jumping up and down with excitement because she scratched a ticket that had “The Weeknd” printed on it, or Elon Musk being grumpy because everyone doesn’t want to conquer Mars.
