Article summary
Pierrick Allan, a Visual Designer who joined superhuit in July, introduces himself in a growing team, amid new projects and an international expansion. He traces his path from a bachelor's in art direction at CRÉA Geneva to junior AD internships in advertising agencies in Berne and Lisbon, followed by his military service. He talks about his taste for challenges and novelty, and compares a beautiful but meaningless design to a beautiful but tasteless dish.
There is movement at superhuit! New projects, an international expansion and many newcomers. Change is good, it brings new ideas and new challenges. As for me, I freshly arrived in July, attracted by novelty precisely to superhuit.
Where was this beardless guy found?
How did I get in this bearded team?
Visual communication started for me at the CRÉA Geneva school during my bachelor degree in art direction. I then did some internships as a junior AD in advertising agencies, in Berne and in Lisbon (that’s right ... already Swiss-Portuguese in the soul!). Once i was back in Switzerland, I had a year of recess in order to fulfill my obligations to serve. Which is a good excuse for me to say that my shaved cheeks are the rest of my army months (if only it were true) and that I was taken from an ad world where gorillas play percussions. If you do not know the reference, you have to watch it with sound.

Think It, Do It, Learn It - Rethink, Redo, Relearn
It's my turn to ask you a question.
Imagine for a moment that the Queen of England came to eat at your house. What would you cook her? Most of us would make a recipe they know and master perfectly. But for me, it will always be something new that I hope will taste good at the end. I like challenges, I like novelty, and I have this desire to always do something palatial that has never been done before. Go forth and make awesomeness!

Here, I am Visual Designer. And like the other visuals designer from superhuit, I make sure that what you have in your plate is aesthetic, looks delicious, and finally that it is delicious. Because a beautiful but meaningless design is like a beautiful but tasteless dish.
Bon Appétit and see you soon for your next project.
Pierrick Allan.
