  • Thorsteinn Beer Brand
    School project in a branding course at the Iceland Academy of the Arts. We were to make a branding proposal for a microbrewery in Iceland and we decided to make 10 different bottle designs for the one and the same beer brand but it would be changed annually. The design could be placed on beer glasses as well.
    For now it is only at a concept stage. Get in touch if you want to invest in our brand for production.

  • Whales + Enemies
    This 3D poster was a part of a school project at the Iceland Academy of the Arts. We were supposed to find something worth protesting. Me and my team wanted to create awareness in Iceland about whale killings and show people how wrong it is.

  • Without destination
    Me and my friend Hörður Ellert Ólafsson went on a photography road trip around Iceland in June 2010 to capture the Icelandic landscape at night on the brightest time of the year here in Iceland. During late June the sun does not set or rise, it´s always bright if the skies are clear. We travelled for 6 days and covered over 1800 kilometers, capturing over 4000 photographs...

  • Mundane landscape
    Being a passenger in a car driving long distances in Iceland can be a weird visual experience.. the landscape changes rapidly and you are likely to drive through all sorts of weather on the way. I challenged myself to photograph (while traveling at 70 mph) the ordinary and plain landscape in one of those trips.. capture the atmosphere of traveling in iceland during springtime.
