Art Direction, Paris. Please check out my site www.michaelthorsby.com
My work is primarily focused on visual identities and Art Direction for the fashion industry and the art world, but you can find his work in other cultural realms than these.
His more abstract image creations regularly make it onto fabric prints for brands.
I have worked with clients ranging from
independent fashion designers to global corporations and public institutions all over the world. Such as Uniqlo, Baserange, Toyota/Scion, Adidas, Diesel Japan, Beams, Head, Miraikan, RVW Furniture, WoodWood, Universal Music,
Atlantic records, Swedish Public Television, Nudie Jeans and Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle.

The distortion thing you do to nearly everything is annoying.
Some nice page layouts though.

nice work, i dig it.
wish you had more clips of the screen graphics, i.e. that lady's name coming in while she's on screen, &c
i like long, scrolling sites. i do wish it was centered though. great type work.
- Thanks a lot! What clips do you miss. You can see more stuff at my https://vimeo.com/mi…PMKFA

Great work, a lot of white, but that's ok.
Where is the work for your corporate clients you list?- Yes I know there is a slight disconnect there. I used to work under the alias PMKFA for 13 years before I switched to my real name at the start of this year. The selection of works for my sight is quite tight. I have probably 80 more projects to show but they no longer fit into my visual direction. That's why they're not shown. Thanks for noting!PMKFA

"The seven years he spent in Tokyo had a profound effect on his work, diversifying his visual expressions and uprooting him from his Scandinavian origins."
A bit pretentious.

Cool site, and really tight, conceptual work. Exhibition projects are outstanding. Some of the it is a bit confusing though, like the poster with no words anywhere, or the identity that looks like the old Yale logo. Also, this isn't always the best place for self-promotion. Cheers!
- Doesn't look too much like the old Yale logo. Nothing confusing.********
- I thought these two were similar. http://cl.ly/image/3…monospaced
- And this poster has no copy. http://www.michaelth…monospaced
- The logos do look similar, but his is more stacked. I feel like I see that a lot.********
- Poster has some explaining to do.********
- yeah, the logo is like a great homage, I do like itmonospaced
- I've never seen that Yale logo before, it's nice, thanks for linking ot. The inspiration for this logo is Japanese hankos, signature stamps.
PMKFA - The La Surprise poster was made for a exhibition. It's not a client work and there's not so much explaining to do, more intuitive work. If it talk to you it does, if it does look somewhere elsePMKFA
- Monospaced: I appreciate the feedback. You're very right, this isn't the best place for self promotion. I probably haven't logged in here for half a decade and now I understand why :) It's a place for visual trolls

A spam account is when you post literally nothing but links to your own website.

Set: Ah. I see. I am sorry. I used to follow this site 9 years ago. Then it was all about sharing your work. I am sorry I disturbed you guys. Now you can go back to sharing UFO's of the day.
