  • Bio Carl-Johan Ekberg

    Carl-Johan Ekberg has more than 20 years of experience working within advertising art direction and design in both Sweden and Australia. He’s a versatile storyteller whose work is characterised by an attention to detail, attentive design, and authentic moments.

    He’s solved complex communication challenges for both national and international companies by developing visual identities, creative concepts, and strategic and tactical campaign platforms. He’s made the complex simple for brands like Bentley Motors, Electrolux Grande Cuisine, Lars Wallin, Kia Motors, Scandinavian Airlines, and Saab Automobile.

    To bridge the gap between rational business strategy and emotional creativity, Carl-Johan added photography and film direction to his portfolio of skills in 2013.

    Growing up on a farm in the middle of Sweden, Carl-Johan has always worked with his hands. He’s built everything from surf and snowboards, to houses and furniture. He loves the outdoors, and is a passionate skier and hunter.
