Samu Salovaara
Aural Visual Symbiosis
Graphic Designer & Creative
based in Helsinki, Finland
Samu Salovaara is a Helsinki-based graphic and type designer with a Master’s degree in Visual Communication Design from Aalto University. His practice, Aural Visual Symbiosis, brings image, type and sound together into one way of working.
His work is most visible in the international underground music scene, where he has created visual identities, logos, record layouts, music videos and sound productions for artists such as Mammoth Grinder, Krypts, Spectral Voice, and Celestial Grave, alongside his own artistic projects.
The practice spans type design and layout, sound design and woven jacquard textiles. Every project is built through dialogue: process, exchange and close collaboration are part of the result.
