Hi, i’m Guido faro,

an art director based in Eindhoven. I’m someone who loves to create, with a special passion for concepting. I love to come up with new ideas that match a brand, strategy, or simply the message that needs to be sent. And once the idea is there, seeing it come to life and executing it flawlessly is how I love to work. I do this in both my personal and professional life, creating all sorts of solutions while challenging myself to do this in ways that I’ve never done before. This gives me a hands-on mentality and broad knowledge about realizing concepts that help me in my daily job to get the best results. With this, I like to surround myself with experts that know all about their craft to get the best possible results.

My skillset is broad but mainly focused on these areas: Concepting, Branding, Graphic Design, Creative Producer, and Director on set.

Also in my personal life, i love to come up with ideas and create these. Think about designing furniture and building it by hand, illustrating, designing tattoos & photograph. Whenever I’m not creating I’m a real sports fan, love soccer, padel, and golf to both watch and participate. Since March, I got a new role in life, namely as a dad from ‘Liam’ together with my partner.

Faro Designs – Jan 2010 – Dec 2017

Freelancing in all creative fields. My expertise in these days was in UI and UX design and worked together with Developers to realize these designs. Besides that, the focus was on (re)branding companies in full-service work. From the logo to print and from signing to websites I delivered the full package for the client’s needs. Besides this, i’ve always liked to create things that are not in my comfort zone, so I’ve had some cool assignments to design furniture, tattoos, artworks and helped with a full print of a building for instance. Always looking for something new to create.
