My design philosophy is to make durable and timeless products for users needs. However, even if the result is something physical, design is not only products, but in most cases a combination of service design, UX/UI design and technology. As a designer, I aim to connect various themes to achieve reliable and justifiable results. I'm finishing my Master of Arts degree in Industrial Design at the University of Lapland. My minors are Creative technology, Service design and Arts. Currently based in Rovaniemi, Finland.
In my studies and as a research assistant I've worked with various themes including calm computing, traditional furniture design, service design, integrated electronics and more. Check out my portfolio!
In addition to design I do photography and all sorts of different projects.
