Hello! my name is Tommy Olsen, im 32 years old and live in Hardanger, norway.
I’ve always been drawn to creative expression, from graffiti and collage art to music and sound design. Over time, I realized I naturally had a “designer’s mind,” constantly critiquing and analyzing the visuals I encountered—color combinations, font choices, layouts, and aesthetics always caught my eye. Eventually, I decided to pursue graphic design professionally, seeking structure and a problem-solving approach to my creative endeavors.
For me, design is the perfect blend of creativity and logic. I thrive on solving problems visually, creating work that not only looks great but also serves a purpose. Throughout my journey, I’ve refined my skills with Adobe tools, honed my visual style, and discovered the importance of structure. Moving from creating what I liked to crafting work that is intentional, functional, and client-focused has been transformative.
I take pride in seeing my work become real-world products that satisfy clients. Nothing compares to the moment when a client is thrilled about their product and excited to use it. Asking the right questions and getting to the heart of a client’s needs is one of my greatest strengths—it allows me to deliver solutions quickly and effectively.
My passion lies in branding, logo design, and poster design. In the future, I aim to establish my own design studio, collaborating with small to medium businesses worldwide that are bold and authentic. While my portfolio reflects diverse skills and experiences, my goal is to gradually specialize and master the areas I’m most passionate about.
Through challenges like overcoming self-doubt or learning the importance of structure, I’ve grown immensely. These lessons have taught me that design isn’t about personal satisfaction but solving real problems with meaning and intent. I’m excited to continue evolving, refining my process, and creating work that speaks for itself.
