Oli is a brand strategist, creative director, artist and the founder of Atelier WOO.
Oli has worked with over 50 founders, creating a visual world around what they loved building. His methodology comes down to two simple keywords: handmade and intimate.
He works with one founder at a time, spending time with them to understand their worldview, how they think and operate as a founder and as a person. Sitting with the founder means spending time not only with them, but also their loved ones, their competition & their audience.

Once he has spent a decent amount of time obsessing over the same obstacles as the founder does, the creative work begins. Everything from the visual language, the copy, the content to the web experience comes directly out of Oli’s understanding from his time with the founder.
Handmade, in that sense, means something precise: made by real craftspeople, for this particular thing, and for nobody else. This is where Atelier WOO’s philosophy of radical value is rooted: Oli’s personal conviction that in a world increasingly shaped by automation and sameness, only a brand built in this fashion can achieve long-term, sustainable growth.

Taste in and of itself doesn’t guarantee connection anymore. Neither does voice. In the age of automation discerning brands must tie their worldview to culture.
