What I believe in and do
My fundamental belief is that design is at the core of what makes us human. Like a design-process, the process of living is iterative and sometimes unpredictable. I believe that humans are fundamentally beings of technology and media, and in extension, that design of technological/mediatic artefacts is a critical part of the story-telling of our lives and societies. Therefore, I also believe in the reflective mind and the necessity to apprehend the world, lived life, and the designs we make and engage with critically. An approach I believe in turn will help us build a better world now and for future generations.
Through my education as Digital Designer I have gained a practical and theoretical understanding of design and design processes (UX / HCI / Interaction design) - from idea to concept to final product. I have also learned the skills necessary to apprehend design and digital media critically, as well as how to structure research, both user-oriented and academically, to deliver the best possible approach for satifsying and innovative results thorughout the design-cycle.
Short about me
Creative, social and responsible individual. I believe in the care of the self just as much as care for others.
I apprehend the world optimistically and critically. Proud and caring father and husband. Adventurous and playful, without forgetting the necessity for structure. I have a keen interest in some of the fundamental phenomenon of the world such as time, embodiment and space. Love nature, hiking and gardening and dream of opening a cozy Bed and Breakfast when I retire in many years from now.
