Design improves life quality
I believe that meaningful, tactile and aesthetic products bring joy to people and increase our wellbeing.
That's why I strive to create design solutions build up on peoples need, and to design sustainable products which have a small environmental impact on the planet. In the end, a happy sustainable planet increases everybody’s health and wellbeing. My design DNA derives from the Scandinavian design heritage where I try to experiment and develop something new and contemporary to take it new places. My inspiration often comes from art, graphical elements, craftsmanship, nature and the Limfjord in Denmark where I grew up.
