Things i´ve done
who am i?
Hi My name is Richard Fogelqvist. I´m a graphic designer based in Varberg.
Im an ambitious team player who loves good design, in all of it´s forms. I have an eye for color and form and i believe the denominator through all good design is that it´s ”eye catching” and durable. I want to describe my self as a prestigeless worker who always strives to preform 100 %.
I have experience from creating logos, graphic material, visual identities and lay out for both print and webb. When I´m in front of a client I´m looking to understand the bigger picture to be able to create concepts and identities that represent and communicates their image and values.
I´m an active person. I´ve always been. I love when things are happening around me and i believe that is part of my hunger to always learn and improve.
Besides that I aslo have a huge interest in food, interior and fashion.

Together with my friend and colleague I started a design studio called Rust and Flood. We started out by having the office at home, but later on moved it to Sveagatan, Linné. We were working with graphic design, marketing and communication. Because of our shared interest in interior design we decided to expand our business plan by selling vintage interior in parallel with our all ready existing design studio.
