I’m Hans-Jörgen Hansson, Art Director and Designer with 35 years of experience in both print and digital media. I began my career in daily press, creating ads and graphic material with traditional, hands-on methods. This gave me a solid foundation in visual communication and graphic design. Today I work fluently in all relevant Adobe Creative Cloud programs, including Illustrator, After Effects, InDesign, and Photoshop. I see myself as a strong team leader and believe the best results are achieved through collaboration and shared creative work. Since 1994 I have worked with IKEA on many projects, involved in over 20 main catalogs, served as responsible Art Director for several chapters within IKEA’s assortment (children’s rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms) and seasonal collections. I also designed patterns for IKEA ceramics within special ranges. I was Art Director for IKEA HFA (Home Furnishing Accessories). More recently my work has focused on storyboards and film production for IKEA’s 3D department, collaborating closely with interior designers and 3D artists. In 2008 I founded Eggkids, a children's brand sold internationally in the USA, Japan, Sweden and Germany. Eggkids is now a licensed brand, with parts of the range sold by Lekolar in the Nordics.
