The founder and creative director of the studio Vlad Ermolaev has been working in communication design since 1995. His biography includes working in the largest Russian and foreign agencies and studios.

Wolff Olins is a global community of thinkers and makers, founded in 1965 to help organisations shake off their corporate camouflage and take their place in the world.
By remaining firmly on the side of the individual, Wolff Olins made corporate identity design truly democratic. It provided creativity that was better for organisations because it was better for people.
Even in an era known for its experimentation, Wolff Olins was radical – creating striking, groundbreaking and commercially successful work from the outset.
Wolff Olins is based in four hubs in London and Dubai, New York and San Francisco.

Speakers: Sophie Paynter
She started her working life at two award winning London design agencies (CDT and GBH), where she worked on a diverse range of brands including Royal Mail, Philippe Starck and PUMA, for which she had work exhibited in the Sustainable Futures exhibition at the Design Museum.
She joined Wolff Olins in 2015 and has worked across a number of projects, most notably pushing forward the global brand and culture experience for Orange, and the rebrand of Girl 
She loves making for people. Designing things that will make someone’s day better, something they’ll want to keep or just something that makes them smile.

Gabriel Weichert
He has been designing at Wolff Olins since 2013. Previous to this he worked at design studio North, has been freelancing at smaller studios and working directly with his own clients. He has worked on big brands like Orange and smaller ones such as Yauatcha, Barbican and St Pancras hotel.
Working with other people, creating logos, apps, books, typefaces that go out in the world is what he most enjoys most.
He loves big bang logos and a good design system that works everywhere from detail to scale.

Fabrique develops visions, helps its clients think about strategies, branding, and innovation and realises designs, preferably cutting straight through the design disciplines, so that the traditional borders between graphic design, industrial design, spatial design and interactive media are sometimes barely recognisable. In the agency’s vision, this cross media approach is the only way to create apparently simple solutions for complex and relevant issues. Fabrique works for clients throughout Europe (among others 3Suisses in France and the Design Museum in London) and India (the City of Agra).
In the past 15 years, the agency received over 150 international awards, among others 35 IF’s, 15 Red Dot’s and 14 European Design Awards. In May 2015 the agency got a prestigious Webby Award for their Design of the website of the London Design Museum.

In 1992, he was one of the founders of Fabrique in Delft, which positioned itself as a multidisciplinary design bureau. He established the interactive media department in 1994, focusing upon developing websites for the world wide web – brand new at that time.
Under Jeroen’s joint leadership, Fabrique has grown through the years into a multifaceted design consultancy. It currently employs more than 100 staff of artists, engineers and storytellers working for a wide range of customers: from supermarket chain Albert Heijn to the Rijksmuseum. Fabrique is one of the leading companies in the field of design in the Netherlands. The agency also opened a studio in Amsterdam in 2008 and one in Rotterdam in 2012.

He was closely involved in developing the extensive Germany program that aims for more collaboration between Dutch creative industries and German (creative) companies.
In November 2015 he was appointed as a professor of concept design at the Faculty Industrial Design Engineering at Delft University of technology.
