Hey!
I'm Anton, a Swedish industrial designer with over 8 years of experience, with a background spanning consulting and in-house product development across outdoor products, consumer electronics, telecom equipment, and a touch of med-tech.
I work best in cross-functional teams at the intersection of brand, product, and manufacturing. Taking projects from brief, through production, to product launch with a strategic approach to design. Meaning, grounding decisions in data-driven insights into the user, the context, and technology, while ensuring strong brand fit and a competitive value proposition.
Outside of work, I take any chance I can to get outdoors, whether that’s cycling, camping, or hiking. Recently I’ve been scratching the itch with heavy gardening at my family’s farm and our own cabin.
