OLO is a co-working space and creative workshop in Trondheim, Norway. In 2023 we gathered up some of the talented freelancers working here, as well as friends and acquiantances, to make a fun creative advent calendar to share on our instagram page, which featured a variety of illustration, motion graphics, music and design.
Every day we presented a new creator, and a piece of theirs. Most people created something specifically for the calendar, others tweaked older work. So scroll down to have a peek at what we all did!
