01 · The brief

How do you fit six careers onto one homepage?

Susanna Björklund reads change for a living. She gives keynotes from São Paulo to Vancouver and Delhi, writes about design and colour for Avotakka and Tikkurila, teaches at LAB Institute of Design, curates exhibitions and creates colour palettes for paint brands. Event organisers, editors and companies all come looking for a different Susanna. Each of them needed to find the right one, fast.

02 · What we did

A website as considered as her trend reports.

01

One clear structure

A route for every audience: speaker, journalism, exhibitions and work, colour consultancy, and a direct line to get in touch.

02

A speaker page that sells

Keynotes at the World Plastic Connection Summit, IDS Vancouver, Ambiente and the Delhi fairs, listed so event organisers can book her with confidence.

03

Exhibitions and colour

Signals, Habitare’s official trend exhibition from 2015 to 2022, and her colour work for Tikkurila and Kesko’s Cello paints, presented as a portfolio.

04

Designed and built

A calm, editorial WordPress site that lets the work speak, designed and built by Varsani Media.

03 · The result

A partnership that began with Signals and is still going.

We first worked with Susanna on the Signals website for Habitare, and again on Signals 2021. As the lecturer for LAB University’s fashion students, she also commissions the KOE graduate show, and the brand-new website we have built for it every year since 2019. Today her own website carries her name, her work and a credit we are proud of: designed and built by Varsani Media.

“I like working with a small company where I feel I have a personal connection. I can ask anything of them, no matter how small a task is.”
