I am a specialist in creative direction, branding, illustration and design. I have a strong conceptual understanding of a wide range of projects, from design to marketing.
Focusing mainly on corporate identities, sustainability, cultural and lifestyle clients.
I'm located in Helsinki, but I also work with global clients.
I have over 25 years of experience in creative work. I have been co-founder, partner, and creative director of three agencies in Finland; Steinmann Klinik – shortlisted top 10 creative agencies in Nordics by Shots, Laundry Helsinki, and N2 Helsinki. I have also worked at Hasan & Partners and PHS/TBWA, to mention a few. Nowadays I run my own company Jari Salo Design.
