James Martin

James Martin has recently joined us at Scandinavian Design Group in our Oslo offices. He has an extensive background as an animator and director, and has worked with basically every ad agency in Oslo, for clients across the board. Now he’s come to SDG, to work more closely with brand identity.

After over ten years in the industry, James is now omnipresent — his work has been in front of travellers (Avinor), hungry diners (McDonald’s), homeowners (OBOS), milk drinkers (Tine) and gamers (Angry Birds). There doesn’t seem to be a topic he can’t make vibrant and engaging. It goes without saying that we’re pretty excited to have James on the team, and we look forward to bringing this depth of knowledge and skill into the brand identities we create.

OBOS Nabohjelp by James Martin

Originally from Salt Lake City, via Seattle and Helsinki, he has now made his home in Oslo, where he enjoys making music and raising a young child.

“We’re in the middle of a vastly growing digital market in Norway, where design now implies movement, and I’m really happy to have found that common interest with SDG.”

If you have some time, make sure to check out more of his previous work on his own website.
