Oskar Kullander is a photographer based in Stockholm, Sweden. We have previously designed Oskar’s identity, stationery and website. This time around, Oskar asked us to design a promotional booklet showcasing some of his work up to date.

The result is a 50 page perfect bound booklet including three different paper stocks (uncoated MultiDesign Smooth White for the bulk of the publication, coated MultiArt Silk for the more commercial photos and the light grey Colorit 93 which we have also used throughout Oskar’s stationery) for the insert and the sturdy, structural Munken Lynx Rough for the cover – matching the grainy, honest photo it holds.

If you are an agency or a company interested in working with Oskar, email him at o@oskarkullander.se to request a copy of the booklet.

Below is a selection of 8" x 8" pieces done for an Intro to Graphic Design wintersession course taken during my Freshman year at RISD. Students were assigned a specific typeface to work with throughout the duration of the course; I was given Courier, a typeface designed by Howard Kettler in 1955 that quickly became the standard for the typewriter industry.

The final project was extremely open, asking for one finished work that established a branding identity for the typeface. I chose to do a small 5" x 5" saddle-stitch specimen booklet with a vintage aesthetic.

After creating my first publication for my sisters New Blood picture book I decided I would carry on the fun and create a little portfolio to promote myself in the hope of landing a summer placement. I made five portfolios and photographed a varity of my work from the past year. This work included logo design, print design & packaging design. I also included an introduction about myself and my reason for sending such a gift, a contact page & an RSVP form to fill out with a stamped envelope for politness. I sent them only a few hours ago so I won't be expecting a reply until next week at the earliest. My fingers are firmly crossed.

Thought I'd post this portfolio I made a while back, when people still made portfolios. Each "page" was a window envelope that could display a project, and show more elements of that project. Allowed for a quick overview and a rich presentation in one book. It is completely handmade, mostly with found materials, my favorite being the spine made from orange duct tape I have never been able to re-find, sadly. Enjoy!
