Bold is growing and we are very happy to welcome a new senior designer Rosanna Tuvhag to the team.

“I’m a multi-discipline designer with roots in crafted graphic design, specialising in visual identity and branding. I work on all stages of brand development – strategy, concept and implementation. The projects I’ve worked on have ranged in scale and expression; from building visual identity systems to developing concepts for spatial and digital platforms. I’ve spent most of the past ten years in London and I’m thrilled to return to Sweden to such an exciting, friendly and fast-growing company as Bold.”

Bold winner in the Creativepool Annual 2015!

Our work for The Shirt Factory has been selected as a winner in the branding category of the Creativepool Annual 2015, a selection of the finest creative work in the world. The jury’s opinion read as follows:

“Perfection, finish and quality has been the hallmarks of The Shirt Factory for over 25 years. So when they wanted to invigorate their brand, it was inevitable they chose Bold, the top Swedish design agency. The project was allencompassing, including a new logo, signage and packaging. A crest made of tailoring equipment paired with a strong yellow colour, injects a youthful tone to the new identity.”
