Fully grown Designer
Hey, forgot to mention that I'm since February upgraded from Junior Designer to Designer here at Contium. Word.
New Beginning
Here we go. I already re-activaded my Papper-blog and this should be the following step, to re-activate this blog. Step by step though. Soon enough I'll also try to get my website up and running.
..I said I'll try.

Contium Brand and Design
It's been a while.
I've been busy.
Graduating as a designer was absolute not the easiest thing I've done.
17 of my 23 years have been all about school and then suddenly you're thrown out with no actual plans. It's hard.
I took it easy.
I paniced.
I made loose plans.
I paniced.
I got a work offer.
A work offer.
I was just about to enter the H&M of Vasa with a work application when my phone ringed. It was about a design job for a brand and design agency.
I went to an interview with the agency just a few hours later and after a couple of days I had my first steady employment ever. Then I teared the work application for a work at H&M apart, because I knew it wouln't be needed for the nearest future.
So, here I sit now at work with the title 'Junior Designer'.
Isn't it great?

Thesis work
Abstract
My thesis work involved creating a corporate identity and designing packaging for the company’s products.
The whole process has been very multifaceted and much more extensive than I could ever have imagine. Making a corporate identity is divided into several different steps. The process begins with an evaluation of a company and its business in order to help the staff work out a more functioning entirety, both structurally and visually. Designing the company’s packaging products, which was another aspect of my work, was a natural continuance after creating the graphical profile for the client.
The final result gave the client a more structured business, with a well functioning entirety, made up by the company’s graphical image and the new look of the packaging products.

Success!
The vernissage went great. The evaluation I had today went great. And tomorrow I'll get my grade. Soon, soon I'm finished with my thesis work..Only one presentation left to do, but it won't be a problem. It's just a 'small' one for the rest of the school, that will say the ones that are interested enough to show up.

Finally!
I've handed in my thesis work for evaluation now. Finally.
It's been crazy weeks, months, full of work, therefore my radio silence.
Though, it's not quite over yet..
This Thursday me and my classmates have the vernissage of our exhibition of our thesis works, so for the moment we are busy preparing for everything.
After that we will keep two presentations of our works and await the final mark.
THEN I should be quite done with school and finally get my Bachelor in design.

Burma goes Papper
The Mars issue of Papper is out now. In the middle of the magazine you'll find my Burma illustration, but there with yellow background. A very good choice of them I must say.

Me - a designer
I was serving myself lunch at the local Chinese restaurant yesterday when a little girl about five years old, I've never seen, before pointed at me and said to her mom "Look, a designer!"
She was right and I was happy.
She was right and I was happy.
Burma pattern
Keep your eyes open for this pattern in the next issue of Papper (April 2008). It's a pattern made for a text on Burma. The illustration are built up from elements from the text and from some inspiration pictures.
I don't know yet which background color they are going to use, but this was one of the proposals.
An enlargement of the illustration itself.
Papper is the only free Swedish magazine to be found in its genre in Finland. Soon you'll also be able to download it from their website. I'll notify when.
