With a background as a creative at one of Amsterdam’s leading marketing agencies and a degree from the renowned Design Academy in the Netherlands, Kristian combines technical precision with a strong sense of narrative and character. His architectural approach reveals a sharp eye for shape, form, and composition—blended with a bold, graphic edge and textured grain that lend his work a distinctively cinematic feel. His unique aesthetic sensibility meets years of commercial experience, resulting in work that is both striking and unmistakably personal. In addition to his work as a director, Kristian is also a designer-artist at his own studio, Atelier Arne Kristian, where he sculpts wood from his estate into functional artworks exhibited at prominent galleries across Europe.
