About me

I’m an Anglo-Swiss senior creative/art director with nearly twenty years experience in some of the most creative agencies across London and Zurich including Grey London, DDB, Havas Worldwide, JVM and Y&R. I’ve directed international, multilingual TV ads, won 360 global pitches, launched new products, designed special sized OOH, digital posters and prints; scripted social content, developed events, created banners, guidelines, brochures and logos. I love the process of developing ideas and looking for new unexpected approaches; creating bold, memorable visuals and crafting the look and feel of campaigns by getting involved with mood boards and design. In the last couple of years I’ve been freelancing as a solo creative as well as a team in big and small ATL, BTL and B2B agencies. www.katyacrichton.com
