Profile

Andrés Andrade

Good creative work starts long before the first sketch. It starts with understanding what a brand needs to say, why it matters, and who it's for. That's where I begin, whether the brief is a campaign, a brand system, or a digital product.

Portrait of Andrés Andrade

Over the years I've collaborated with agencies including Grabarz & Partner, Heimat TBWA, Innocean Berlin, and Peter Schmidt Group, working across Automotive, Telecommunications, and Healthcare.

Outside of client work I run Tripsitterklang, an independent electronic music label and creative playground where music, graphic work, and design come together.
