About me
When people ask what I am, I never refer to my job title. I'm not a designer by trade, but have forged a career over the last decade doing exactly that. I'm a photographer that can design.
I've worked for fashion brands, for small brands and for some very big brands. I've pushed pixels to their limits, photographed and retouched beyond recognition, Art Directed sets on mountain sides and worked in advertising above the line, below the line, through it, in social, digital, the list goes on. I'm fluent in all the industry standard programs that you supposedly need to do this job.
If that doesn't tell you who I am, you've either got the wrong Oli Ashrafi-Tari, or you've got a brief for me. Either way, it's irrelevant, this is The Dots. Let's connect and start a conversation...

- LEGO AR StoreNothing says limited edition drop like a pop-up. So we created one that could pop up anywhere. Inspired by LEGO and the hippest streetwear outlets, we built a virtual fashion store completely created within an AR Snapchat lens Inside the store, customers were free to explore, interact with the DJ to change the music, hang with the shoppers and staff, check out the merchandise - and of course buy it. All in one seamless online experience. The store went live at the start of London Fashion Week15
