Dan Bunnskog has over 18 years of experience in repositioning well-known brands through design, insight, and passion.
By working with some of Sweden’s most prominent branding and design agencies, he has developed a broad expertise in transforming strategy into clear, relevant, and actionable design.
His experience ranges from international assignments in banking, energy, destination, and IT — often involving many stakeholders — to collaborations with cultural institutions, theatres, and museums in smaller, more creative project teams. In every context, he is driven by curiosity about people and a belief that good design is born out of close collaboration.
The artistic dimension is central to Dan’s work and has its roots in studies at Falkenberg School of Art and HDK, where a master’s degree in design shaped his idea-driven and multidisciplinary approach. With the same curiosity, he explores visual identities that extend beyond the graphic and into the tactile and spatial — for example through packaging, signage systems, exhibitions, events, concept sketches, and interior design.
The result is brands that feel alive and human — and have the space to grow over time.
