I am a creative director and music producer living in London. Under the name “Klint” I've written and produced music for films and trailers such as Guy Ritchie’s Snatch, The Devil Wears Prada, Seven Psychopaths and The Monuments Men. In 2004 I co-founded Specialten, a music and film dvd magazine and in 2009 File magazine, an online film, art and design publication. My latest project is citylikeyou.

Creative Director between New York and Philadelphia

Parasto Backman is the founder of Studio Parasto Backman, a Stockholm based graphic design studio. She mixes commissions with self-initiated projects and her clients include art galleries, theaters, publishers, museums, fashion brands, film production companies etc. A central part of Parasto’s work process is about illuminating power structures in order to broaden the palette of graphic design and create space for other forms of expression, logics and references within the field. To go beyond Eurocentric traditions of thinking and making is her consistent baseline in all kinds of project attained. Since a few years back Parasto is also a Senior Lecturer of Visual Communication towards Graphic Design at Konstfack University of Arts, Craft & Design in Stockholm.

We create inspirational brands through three creative practices: art direction, branding and the creation of spaces. In our work we seek to order the attributes, qualities, history and beauty of a brand to give it an unexpected yet personal message, around which we can build a lasting and elegant image. Our clients want to build a universe of new images that convey honesty and credibility. To achieve this, we look for useful and simple solutions that are visually clear and meet their needs. We are based on simplicity and familiar languages, taking into account the imperfection and the wabi sabi philosophy. We are always researching and documenting ideas that will be eventually realised as something new and original.
