Mia Olofsson – Designer

Swedish Illustrator and graphic designer with a passion for picture books based in Paris.

Overview

Hey there! I'm an illustrator and graphic designer originally from Sweden but now based in Paris. My freelancing journey began in 2015 and In my portfolio you will find a wide range of projects that have fueled my passion for storytelling through art for all kinds of target groups.

In the realm of graphic design, I specialize in crafting impactful logos, brand identities, magazines, books, brochures, posters, PowerPoint designs and restaurant menus. I have a sharp sense for layout and typography and I feel lucky to often have projects where I get to combine my skills in graphic design and illustration, for example an illustrated menu for a restaurant or a colourful illustrated poster.

When it comes to illustration, my focus lies in producing captivating brand illustrations and bringing fairy tales to life in children's books. I also have a lot of fun creating collections of illustrations and templates for all sorts of things for the platform Canva!

Children's books hold a special place in my heart. I find sheer joy in playing with perspectives, exploring new worlds where the sky can be yellow and the trees can be pink. I also love to work with the format of the book as a way to expand the dimensions of the story.

But don’t be afraid! I’m not always playing around on my pink cloud creating imaginary worlds. I also take big pleasure in making illustrations in a more serious and realistic way, often with simples lines and only one color. I see myself as a chameleon in a way, I can adapt myself and my creations can have many different styles but always with my own mark.

With a blend of creativity, professionalism, and a sprinkle of Swedish charm, I'm here to add that special touch to your projects. Can't wait to join forces and make some magic together!
