Felix Sarwe Grankvist joins Animal as a junior Art Director

We’ve added some freshly squeezed brain juice to our ever growing Animal team – say hello to Felix Sarwe Grankvist. He started out as a Design Intern but has now transitioned into a full-blown Animal Designer.

If you could teleport yourself to any place, fictional or in real life, where would you go?

I would go back in time and go to Rome in the olden days. I’ve read a lot about it, and I think it sounds like a fascinating time. The fact that you could wear basically just a toga and sandals makes it even more appealing.

What's your weirdest hobby/interest?

When I was younger I collected rocks, hoping to find some nice crystals. For a while, I also made a living from buying and reselling shoes.

What inspires you the most?

Music really inspires me. It helps you think differently. If I ever feel stuck, music usually helps me get out of it.

Name a song you know completely by heart.

Well, I know Peter LeMarc’s album completely by heart. The main reason for this is because it got stuck in our cassette player when I was little.

Another great car song I love is “Through the barricades” by Spandau Ballet.

If you could create your very own animal what would it be?

A penguin mixed with a frog. I just want to see a penguin with frog legs. Wouldn’t want to have it at home though.

A penguin walks through that door right now wearing a sombrero. What does it say and why is it here?

I think the penguin would go for “Why I am I here and why am I wearing a sombrero?“.
