Season’s greetings from Foster + Svensson

The year behind us remarks an extremely large number of activities at Foster + Svensson, on which we are proud. We have secured certificate for national Trustmark in ecommerce for our client, while our Managing Director was ranked as N°1 within Top 25 influential and inspiring Account Directors in the world by Creativepool from UK for the 5th time in a row. In 2023 we welcomed new clients, some from Fortune Global 500 list, and introduced our new visual identity and website.

We designed a new logo, a new identity for ourselves. The very uniqueness of new Foster + Svensson 3D shape-shifting logo is in its dimensional and geometry aspect. A colored motion and 3D animated abstract bubble is symbolizing ideas, conversation, processes, thinking and creativity which wants to be unleashed from the bubble itself, representing no strains, and go beyond ordinary.

In 2023, Foster + Svensson welcomed new clients to whom we provided wide range of services in area of brand and identity design, strategy, corporate communications, creative and design, data analytics, digital, e-commerce and motion graphics. We continue to excel in provided services, spotlighting a high-quality output, record on-time delivery and project management. In addition, to our partners, suppliers, and vendors we remain stable partner securing first-class partnership with proper briefs and payments on time, with no delays.

Our Brand Institute provided series of workshops and trainings to our clients, to educate, but also share know-how in marketing industry. We believe it’s vital for all people involved in marketing to be familiar with creative process, design standards and industry overall, so we could all together create meaningful brand experiences that work, and which will be loved by people. This process will enable people to understand marketing propositions, messages and to be invited by the brand to continuously use their products or services.

During previous and this year, we also have investment in our people, office interior, furniture, as well in equipment, such as new Apple computers and laptops with upgraded hardware, which enabled us faster response in content creation and design, while preserving high security as they are all integrated within firewalled ecosystem.

Besides providing creative services, our priority is the safety of the clients and their projects, so we make sure that all servers hosting our clients’ materials, websites, microsites, and applications are in a state-of-the-art Tier-3 data center that represents the most modern and highest level of services with high guaranteed availability 24 hours a day. Foster + Svensson is affiliate partner of EUnet, where we secure SSL certificates, domains, and hosting. We use upgraded servers that have continuous uptime and with upgraded infrastructure, characterized by high security, increased speed and stable SSD and Cloud servers.
This year we have also acquired original artwork by Dunja Jung and added to our private contemporary art collection. This very art we buy (sculptures, paintings, prints, drawings) is done from part of profit we make, and where we invest in future history by buying it and displaying at Foster + Svensson as our legacy and investment in contemporary art. It is also a way how we express our support and recognition to the artists. At Foster + Svensson, people are focused on increase of global philanthropy awareness and change of people culture towards better societies. Art preservation represent one of three pillars within Foster + Svensson Foundation, where we identify, promote, buy, and collect arts, that will become legacy for generations to come.
We, Foster + Svensson are an award-winning European branding agency, who put forward well-considered contemporary design, digital and innovation. Our origins in architecture, design, sculpturing, and music are back in 1860 where our descendants brought rich history in visual and musical arts. Dragiša Suvodolac, a Royal Court artist, worked with sculptor Ivan Meštrović on creating “The Victor“ monument in Belgrade (1928) and Memorial monument to the Unknown Hero atop Mount Avala in Belgrade (1938) to name a few. The family of Suvodolac was awarded in 1938 by King Peter II Karađorđević of Yugoslavia with Royal Household Silver Medal with Crown Rare for visual art services including painting, sculpture, and architecture. Suvodolac are one of the oldest and rarest families in Serbia, dated back in 11th century between 1004-1008 during Byzantine Empire, when Suvodol monastery was built and later rebuilt by Prince Lazar of Serbia as Nemanjić dynasty foundation in 14th century. Complete reconstruction was done during 1866 by Mihailo Obrenović, Prince of Serbia. Suvodol monastery is marked as a cultural monument of great importance under Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments of Serbia.

Behind us, we salute to one prosperous year on which we remain proud. Happy holidays from all of us at Foster + Svensson. Wishing you joyous compliments of the Season and best wishes for the New Year! 🥂
