We are Jon & Christian, a NY-based team who met over 15 years ago, right around when Facebook was still competing with MySpace. We love to find a creative solution to any challenge. With strategic thinking and a humble, simple approach we always strive for ideas that has the power to transform brands, impact culture, add value, drive results, and move mountains*. 

From Stockholm to Hamburg to Miami to Amsterdam to Shanghai to New York, we come with a global experience, working on some of the best agencies in the world, like AKQA, Wieden + Kennedy, Havas and McCann, creating work for iconic brands such as Nike, Dos Equis, Hershey’s, IKEA, Lysol, USPS, eBay, U.S. Bank and MGM Resorts to mention a few. 

Besides making ads, Jon loves winter, darkness and music, especially live shows and vinyls. Christian loves crocodiles, running, movies and new flavors. Their secret superhero skill is being able to finish each other's sentences.
