Creative agency Morsekode welcomed Dain Larson to its Minneapolis headquarters as creative director.
“I joined up with this shop because of the incredibly positive work environment, the clients, the people — and the quality of the work Morsekode is producing,” Larson said in a statement. “I’m in to help push this great agency to new creative heights.”
Larson arrives at the agency from space150, where he served spent over four years and most recently served as senior art director. While with space150 he worked with clients including 3M, Cambria, Buffalo Wild Wings, Xcel Energy and Pagoda Frozen Foods. Before joining space150 he spent nearly two years as an art director with Fallon, working with clients such as H&R Block, Cadillac and Travelers Insurance. Prior to that he served as a senior designer/art director with Olson for around three and a half years and worked with brands including Bauer Hockey, Lee Jeans and Northwestern Mutual.
“Dain looks great in flannel—and for a Minnesota agency, we know this matters. Hiring Dain ties directly to a shift we are making at Morsekode to focus on specific aspects of our work,” Morsekode CEO Mark Morse said in a statement. “For a young creative director, Dain has a unique maturity to his work; fresh yet brand appropriate. This perspective is exactly what we need as a digital-centric brand creative agency—to energize both our creative DNA and the business of our growth-oriented clients.”
Morse added that the agency’s Minneapolis headquarters is in “full-on expansion” mode in the wake of “two years of double digit billings increases.”
