We’ve just employed our latest designer, Maria Hammerstrøm. She was educated at Westerdals School of Communication and has previously worked at Studio 3, where she worked on projects including the typography book Hyperactivitypography from A to Z. The book was published by Die Gestalten Verlag and won gold in three competitions: Gullkalven, Årets Vakreste bøker (The Most Beautiful Books of the Year) and Visuelt 2011. Maria has just finished working at the design agency Proverb Ltd. in Boston, USA.
Our new designer Tom Lenartowicz was awarded gold in the open class for Graphic Design at the 2011 Visuelt Awards. Tom and his former colleague Cecilie Authén at TBWA\OSLO were awarded the prize for their strong work on the ad campaign “Hugin and Munin” for Odin Fond. The jury commented “both idea and execution are painfully beautiful”. Congratulations on your win, Tom!
We got a silver at tonights Visuelt Award in the category Packaging. The winner was our design for Mack Tradition Series, Gullmack and Bokøl. Our work for Mack Cider was also nominated and got a honourable mention.

We have just added Tom Lenartowicz to our design team at Tank. He’s a design graduate from University College Falmouth in Cornwall, England, and he worked in France for Method Snowboard Magazine before moving to Norway just over a year ago. Tom was previously employed at TBWA/Oslo before joining Tank. We are happy to welcome Tom on board to further strengthen our web design competence.
Every year The Norwegian Design Council acknowledges the very best of innovative solutions, developed by companies and designers, through the annual Award for Design Excellence. This year Tank and Mack brought home TWO awards, one for the Mack Cider and one for Mack Tradition series.

We’re looking for a graphic designer with a web-focus. We want to strengthen our team with a young, energetic designer who specialises in designing for the web and digital media. You’ll ideally have a few years’ experience after your studies, and be keen to develop your skills in a strong design environment in Sagveien. We don’t need a developer or a Flash specialist, yet good technical knowledge is essential.
We’re a team of 12 people based in a lovely office in Sagveien, and we all look forward to welcoming a new colleague!
