Who we are
© 2011 Karoshi
Karoshi is a creative-led, graphic design agency dedicated to all aspects of visual communication, from brand identity inception and evolution to application and management.
We were born from a team of senior creatives who had worked with some of the world’s leading brands. Our experience showed that the needs of a client were not being effectively handled by the traditional agency structure and an opportunity existed for a fresh approach.
Karoshi is driven by the principle that creative thinking and client interaction are not mutually exclusive. Our clients deal directly with the creative individuals responsible for their account. This ensures a more efficient execution and a level of understanding that surpasses that of the accepted agency model.
This approach is underpinned by three fundamental principles: insight, creativity and service.
