About
Despite what my haircut might have you believe, I do care about craft.
If you’re looking for the creative director of SKIMS underwear, my apologies. If not, please read on.
I’m Steven Kim, Creative and Art Director, based in Toronto.
It all began in my fourth year at Ontario College of Art (which you might now know as OCADU) as a scholarship winner from Maclaren McCann (which you might know now as just McCann).
As a summer intern I learned two valuable lessons. For one, the only path to quality is through quantity. And two, the way to quantity is usually through humility.
My work experience includes ACLC where I spent my humble beginnings creating QSR tray liners, auto show wheel stands, rack brochures, newspaper campaigns and sometimes even TV spots; network agencies like BBDO and Dentsu where I learned the art of doing whatever it takes; as well as independent gems like Giants & Gentlemen and 123w where I continued my journey to my best work. I’ve won numerous awards along the way, mostly as a creative but also as a photographer.
When not working, I’m usually still working. But when I’m not doing either of those, I’m probably driving my son to hockey.
