KilDe has it's origin in Norway. The name first occurs 1987. It is a synthesis of "Kilian" and "Design", but furthermore in Norwegian it means spring or source. In this context the sign has been developed: "Scooping from the source". Since its origins KilDe has dealt with visual communication and digital design has always been a central issue.



We cover the complete realm between creative development and realisation:
Corporate design, packaging design, flyers, folders and catalogues, advertisements,
final artwork, picture processing and photodesign, illustration, typography and typedesign,
3d-design for products, displays and exhibition-spaces as well as design of interactive MultiMedia-applications.



Process-orientated work with high claim towards communication- and receptionquality.
Designation of a products properties and functions. Development of visual and physical signs/systems and their adaption for products.



Who am I, what do I do and how do I do it?
These are crucial questions for the development of a corporate design program.
Everything a company does, owns and produces, should follow a clear projection and be reflected in a visual system, applied to products, services, communication and environments.
Procedure: providing internal and external informations, analysing the findings, consequently design briefing, repositioning verbally, developing design ideas, finetuning and realisation.



Inhouse realisation and consistency of corporate design. Consequent support by chief excecutive management, clear budgeting as well as monitoring and controlling.
Interaction of all design measures, based on defined parameters given by design-manual.
Pragmatic procedures which take all needs of the involved - even the most detailed - into account.



Since we do not "move" all projects ourselves, we maintain a well established network with other freelancers and service centres.
Trading experiences with others is a major resource in the rushing flow of evolution. Experiments and Know-How-Transfer are our strength! "
There is always a way - and a better way!"



Consulting regarding whole/holistic aspects:
Communication quality, -ecology and -economy, renunciation of mass-effects, on behalf of individual solutions, modular sign systems, multifunctional and recycleble design, synthesis of conventional and digital tecniques.
Interdisciplinar investigations: linguistic, semiotic, geomatic, sociologic, philosophic, psychologic, informatic, synergetic, synaesthetic.
