Odin Saillé becomes co-creative director at DDB
Thursday, June 4, 2015 — Some people already knew it, but now it's official: this summer Odin Saillé (ex-Boondoggle) starts as co-creative director at DDB Brussels. He will form a duo with current ECD Peter Ampe. This is a logical next step in the recent growth of DDB. Peter Ampe about Odin:
“When we first talked, it clicked. We're both brand builders who like to sit at the table next to the client. Our working together means more quality time for campaigns and an extra stimulus to design and integrated digital thinking.”
Odin started as art director at Base Design (New York) and was one of the driving forces behind Boondoggle Amsterdam. At age 25 he became creative director at Boondoggle. With succes, for 2,5 years. He was mainly responsible for De Morgen and Studio Brussel. He also worked on Belfius Bank and handled the international contacts for Maxi-Cosi.
With their list of new people, DDB continues to move forward. In the past two years the agency has evolved to a place where strategy, creation, content en integrated thinking work together to serve brands and their busisness. This is also one of the reasons why Odin made the move to DDB:
“For me it was very simple. I didn't want to let the opportunity to join a tight and talented team pass me by.”
