About Me
My parents met in a red phone booth in Budapest. You can guess the rest.
​​
I'm Joel Tobias Lindgren, creative artist, art director and brand designer who loves to bring ideas to life and tell stories through visuals crafted to perfection. Here you can take a glimpse of my world. My experience builds through 15 years in creative industry including large scale commercial client concepts to small niche art projects surrounded with advertising mayhem and adventurous tinkering. ​
​
Currently I am freelancing with creative brand projects, teaching New media and design in Metropolia University of Applied Sciences and producing a short film.
​
I'm always open for new interesting collaborations. So if you are interested in working together just drop me a line.
