My name is Mathias, and if you’ve landed on this page, you probably already know that I’m a graphic designer. But graphic design doesn’t have to be just graphic design. Sure, I’ve got the degree and the credentials, but more importantly, I have a drive to build and strengthen communities. Graphics and drawings on its own can’t do that, which is why I use aesthetics and design as tools for storytelling and identity building.
The output might be a website, a video, a poster, or something entirely different, that’s not the point. The more I get to know a brand and the people behind it, the better solutions I can help create. And no, you don’t need to be my neighbor - I happily collaborate with people all over the world, as well as with local businesses just around the corner.
Beyond my design practice, I’m also the chair of a non-profit association called Nabolag, which works to strengthen communities through a wide range of cultural initiatives. It all comes back to the same thing: using creativity to connect people and create lasting impact
