Hi! I’m Haakon 👨🏼💻
A Norwegian designer based in Malmö - Sweden, with a passion for quality products and innovations that improves people’s lives.
What can I do for you?
-
A good design needs no tutorial. It’s intuitive and self-explanatory. And to do just that, it’s got to be made for us - not just by us.
-
Products and services doesn’t exist without an audience; and a company shouldn’t survive without thoroughly understanding its audience. That’s why I believe solutions should be based on research, ideation, user testing and iterations.
-
It’s not all about function tough. Form, colour and text captures, give us immediate associations and sparks joy when we read - and can be the deciding factor of what to choose when the options are many.
-
In order to find the suiting tonality, colours, shapes and interactions, there has to be ideation involved. I’m a strong believer in “yes-and mentality”, and to peak outside the box. Having explored and facilitated several workshops and sprints, I feel comfortable using the right tools at the right time, while explain and motivate for an engaging participation.

Coffee and plants ☕️ 🌱
Plants thrive under various conditions. Some need humidity, some need sun and some the polar opposite.
I try to keep my plants happy and awake, just as coffee does for me.
