Hallo! Hej! Hi!

Thanks for being here!

Let me tell you a bit about me and my work…

I'm an interdisciplinary designer currently based in Munich/ Germany.

After graduating with a BA in Interior Architecture I have been working for a small architectural studio in Munich for 3,5 years.

With the desire to learn more about furniture design and scandinavian culture I moved to Stockholm/ Sweden where I took an MFA in Spatial Design from Konstfack University College of Arts, Crafts and Design.

I dedicated the two years of my studies to research and practice in material innovation and experimental manufacturing processes, crossing the lines between interior architecture, industrial design and arts. ​

My artistic work in general is driven by questions evolving around environmental issues and the urge to explore sustainable alternatives to existing norms.

Possibly rooting in being the granddaughter of a cabinetmaker, I have a great passion for traditional craftsmanship (especially woodwork) and a hands-on practice that involves interdisciplinary co-creators.

 

For many different reasons my education has led me to the field of retail design and so I have spent most of my work years developing interiors and furniture for different internationally operating store chains, such as the swedish fashion brand Monki or the german drugstore chain dm-drogerie markt.

​The specific field of retail design offers a broad range of design work: from graphics and print design to products and furniture to interior concepts and façades.

The variety of assignments is what makes it so exciting to me. It also requires a certain sensitivity and deep understanding of the brand and its clients as well as for the fast changing trends of our time.

 
 
 

As I have gained a lot of experience around retail design and brand development, I am now working as a freelance designer creating not only interiors and furniture but also corporate identities (CI design) from logo design to business cards, labels, flyers, posters, websites etc.

I am open to any job opportunities (must be able to work remotely though), art projects or collaborations!​

I am always looking for inspiring and fun collaborations, especially within some creative network that has an interest in experimental and sustainable design.

Ever since I have digged into working with plastic recycling I am super keen on digging deeper! Wanna tinker together? Get in touch!
