Allan Ohr - Idéklekkeriet & DRIVKRAFT

Format: Illustrated project roadmap and branding elements.
Client: Lofotrådet, Vestvågøy Kommune, Senja Kommune
Technique: Digital Illustration
Year: 2024

I was invited by Lofotrådet to attend two workshops happening back to back in October 2024, to draw live during the events. Both to make the workshop more fun for the children and teenagers attending, and as a sketch documenting the ideas and solutions that came to light during. We later re-worked these sketches as part of illustrative project summaries, and roadmaps - with the aim to further engage local youths to get involved in the future planning of their local meeting places. These were two different jobs packaged into one in a way, and it ended up being two different visual identities for the workshops.

Idéklekkeriet is also a specific creative workshop program that Lofotrådet hopes to implement in other projects going forward. "The Idea Hatchery" in English, the choice to lean the project towards chicks, eggs and grown birds all working together felt like an obvious and fun one, and opened up for a lot of fun illustrations. I also liked how it made the characters applicable to anyone, regardless of of demographic. Speechbubbles merged, or replaced with little songbird notes also made for a fun addition, and highlights how the workshops, most of all, was just fun.

An incredibly fun and creative challenge for me!
