About

As a designer, I strive to work with materials, production, and design in a conscious and sustainable way. I view design as a responsibility — to understand the impact our choices have and to create products that contribute positively to the future.

Born and raised on the Swedish west coast, in the small town of Strömstad, I’ve always been deeply connected to nature and inspired by its forms and textures. At the same time, my strong interest in fashion encouraged me to explore bold aesthetics that weren’t easily accessible where I grew up. This contrast has shaped my creativity and taught me to design what I felt was missing.

Today, my work is driven by a balance of function, practicality, and individuality — characterized by a playful combination of colors, materials, and shapes that aim to stand out while remaining purposeful.
