Visual design.
Aesthetics are important, because they can have a strong influence on how we perceive things. We tend to find attractive things to actually work better, be easier to use and to be more credible.
App design and branding

Promotional artwork for the App Store. Intended ro represent what the app is about. Historically you would track workouts with a pen and paper. Now, of course it’s an app. Rendered with Midjourney.
The two stripes of the brand are inspired by sport jerseys, where the arms, shoulders and legs usually display a similar pattern. The name comes from a popular gym technique where one lowers, or drops, the weight on consecutive sets in order to increase fatigue.
Brand design
The Scandinavian Bank made in 2024
A branding concept for a neobank from Scandinavia. This came out of a design sprint as a challenge to the rest of the team to think new. The idea of the concept was to leverage the existing perception of the brand of Scandinavia, as something you can trust.
The tag line.
Intended associations.
The colour palette, ranging from sun, forest, stone and snow.
Bank apps are usually quite heavy on lists, transaction lists in particular. Lots of emphasis here on what people are usually looking for, the number.
Photography played a big part in the communication, depicting all the stuff you would be able to do instead of worrying about your money.
The period case from the type face turned out to have this lovely squircle shape that, when enlarged, works as a container for things like icons.

Art direction
Qapital · Custom collection of branded photographs
Led an initiative to create a collection of branded photographs for the Qapital savings app. I worked on setting the style, color composition and quirky feel together with a professional photographer. Qapital is dependant on good imagery for the user interface. Much of it has been uploaded by the users themselves, and giving them a default set to pick from would improve the experience. The photographs had a distinct and cohesive look, with a harmonized color palette to match.
Print design
Lunar · Printed magazine
Led an initiative on how to communicate research of our customers through archetypes. I produced a printed magazine that was distributed internally across 500 employees. I led the work with an illustrator, copy writers and a product director. Some of the illustrations I made myself.
