Branding + UI/UX
I build brands, their stories, and the systems that hold them together.
Work
UX/UI
Hors Saison - Fragrance Digital Composer
The experience was designed to increase discovery set engagement by reframing fragrance sampling as an act of exploration. Through an interactive configurator, users can experiment what a fragrance atelier feels like and explore with notes and accords, creating a more personal and memorable entry point into the brand universe.
UX/UI
Case management tool - Oslo
A reimagined case management workflow for Oslo Tax Office: designed around the mental models of the people navigating it every day. Kravbase is where I go deep: complex systems, dense information hierarchies, and the quiet craft of making bureaucracy feel human.
BRANDING
Hors Saison - Building a brand identity
A conceptual luxury fragrance brand exploring the relationship between scent, time, and stillness through identity and digital interaction.
BRANDING
After Midnight
Events Venue & Cocktail Bar
After Midnight is a branding concept for a dark, intimate cocktail and music venue. What began as a typography and layout challenge evolved into a full visual identity: logo, colour system, brand materials, and a short atmospheric film.
