I enjoy working with a social approach to design.

As a designer I like to learn new things, both academic and situated exploration driven by curiosity. Design is meaningful to me when it enhances reflexivity by creating space for action and reflection. I have a wide range of experience with material (a bit of a generalist), and especially like visual design and weird crafting of methods and concepts.

Currently

Selected Works

Coast as a Host: Initiativsonen

The autumn of 2024 I have been part of the course Digital Commons: Strategic design for society. Together with a group of fellow designers we have created a collection of small tools for Sør-Varanger municipality to start the transition from “Tiltakssone” to “Initiativsone”.

The stretch

A project about how the Child Welfare System can become more reflexive by surfacing tensions and contradictions in the core values of their work. Working with Bærum municipality, CWS.

Levende Gater for Oslo PBE

This is a project that grew out of our bachelors project in 2023. Four teams were invited to help Oslo municipality formulate new ways of working with giving citizens the right to use our streets.

Publication: abstrakt bok (book of abstracts)

The goal of this work was to make the academic side of design more visible. The concept was a book of abstracts, collecting all the students work in one book.
