I help international brands and technical companies turn complex information into clean, high-end visual stories. From professional B2B product catalogs to premium marketing brochures and illustrated books, my goal is the same: clarity, professionalism, and a touch of Swedish minimalism. Originally from northern Sweden, my path to design has been hands-on and diverse. After an apprenticeship at a Bremen web agency focused on print, I spent nearly a year working inside a professional bookbindery and printery. This "behind-the-scenes" look at the production process allows me to create designs that are not only beautiful but technically flawless for print. Latest Milestone: I recently completed a passion project—designing and illustrating a children’s book written by my sister. This experience of taking a narrative from concept to a professional, physical product perfectly reflects how I approach every client project: with care, detail, and a focus on the final result. What I bring to your project: Technical Precision: A "print-aware" mindset using Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator. Trilingual Communication: Native-level fluency in Swedish, German, and English. Collaborative Spirit: Experience turning ideas into high-quality multi-page layouts. Take a look at my portfolio to see my latest work, and let's discuss how we can elevate your next project.

Founder/Art Director @ Fractale Visual Hi, I’m Juan, founder and art director of Fractale Visual, a specialized studio delivering precision 3D animations, medical renders, CGI visualizations, motion graphics, and VR experiences exclusively for the life sciences. With 12+ years in high-end creative production—including collaborations with Adobe, Shazam, PepsiCo and further Fortune 500 brands—I made a deliberate shift to focus 100% on pharma, biotech, MedTech, neuroscience, and dental. This pivot was deeply personal: my father is a surgeon, my sister a physician, so science and healthcare have always been part of my world. Today, I channel that background into visuals that bridge complex science with crystal-clear communication—helping teams educate patients, train professionals, secure funding, and advance discovery. Big Pharma trusts my work: I've collaborated directly with Roche, Novartis, Johnson & Johnson, Olympus Medical, and the European Respiratory Society. Most recently, I single-handedly led and delivered a major 14-video series for Octapharma on Von Willebrand Disease and their therapies (Wilate®, Octaplex®, Fibryga®). Tailored for children, teens, and adults—with full scientific accuracy, multilingual adaptations, and stunning fidelity—all completed in under four months. I also partner closely with innovative startups across Switzerland and the US. Visuals I've created have helped companies like Neomera BioLab (AI-assisted drug discovery), SmileShape (dental AI prosthetics), AirCurve (robotic intubation MedTech), Dandelion (AI neuromodulation), and others close six- and seven-figure funding rounds, win prestigious grants (e.g., Wyss Institute), and present compellingly at international conferences. Scientific precision first: Every project begins with curated, peer-reviewed references to ensure 100% medical and biological accuracy. Efficient, proven pipeline: 5 clear phases—1. references & moodboard → 2. storyboard → 3. style frames →4. animatic →5. final production—to minimize revisions, control budgets, and accelerate delivery. High-impact outcomes: Animations and renders that make mechanisms of action, disease pathology, device functionality, and AI platforms instantly understandable—driving investor buy-in, regulatory clarity, academic support, and patient adherence. Tools & expertise: Cinema 4D, Houdini, Octane Render, After Effects, Substance 3D Suite. Plus multilingual fluency (German, English, Spanish native-leve and decent French) for seamless work with Swiss, Benelux, and US teams. Human-centered approach: AI is a tool in my pipeline, never a replacement—every visual is shaped by experienced creative direction and deep respect for the science. Pricing is straightforward and competitive: a typical 60–90 second mechanism-of-action or device animation starts at $80–150 per second (depending on complexity), with series and larger scopes receiving preferential per-minute rates. Timelines are realistic and milestone-based for predictability. Illustrations go for about USD400 to USD800 a piece, depending on their complexity. If you're a professional in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical technology, or neuroscience in Switzerland, the US, or Europe and need visuals that earn trust, win funding, and clearly communicate life-changing science—let's connect. Message me for a quick call to discuss your project. My motto here, "no project, company or startup is too small. From small beginnings come big endings". I am looking forward to advancing science with you!
