Antero is a founding partner and Creative Director of Helsinki-based creative agency 358. During the late nineties Antero found his way to advertising and design - working for a local Helsinki agency. After couple of years he relocated to 180 Amsterdam to work for brands like adidas, Amstel and MTV. In 2007 he found himself driving a convertible in Los Angeles and working for 180 LA and Sony.
