How Art Can Become Your Soulmate
In January 2013 Spring/Summer came to life with a clear idea of how a modern design agency could be run. Gathering the best talent fuelled by high ambitions and projects run in a way where quality is the last thing to be sacrificed, we design online shops, corporate websites and brand identities with a strong root in the Scandinavian design philosophies where functionality meets aesthetics and the whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts.

Hobby and 2nd Passion
Walking, Wandering, and Observing
I enjoy walking around my town during my free time to seek new ideas, reflect on myself, and discover new things. As a person who has been practicing this habit for nearly 6 years, I can say that every time I take a walk, I'm still surprised about things I discover in my town (hopefully not snakes or spiders in the future ._.).
Want to collaborate?
Let’s create together!
