We were commissioned by our old friends at SMFB, Carl-Erik Conforto and Stig Bjølbakk, to work with them on an advertising concept for Tele2′s smartphone campaign. These little fellows emerged out of the shapes in Tele2′s own design manual, and we immediately fell in love with them. The print and television campaign is out now. The animated film is made by Toxic, and if we are lucky there will be more to come.

This plush was created for my nephew Timian when he was born. Kamenatt is awake at night. Kamenatt is very kind. Kamenatt looks scary, but it is just to chase away imaginary animals that might be in the room. Kamenatt has a magical tail that plays Brahms Lullaby and whisk away the imaginary animals. Kamenatt is Timians buddy. Check also out Plush Alenei

The new wrapping paper just arrived from the printers, and we are very happy. The print is inspired by the Flanellograf, once state of the art technology for storytelling in the kindergarten, and (surprisingly) still on the market. The pattern is colorful and naive, and suitable for any gift. Get it at Hunting Lodge.
