MASTER THESIS PROJECT 20 Weeks - Research Project - Collaboration Volvo Cars
BACKGROUND This thesis is a conceptual design study of how the next generation of car interiors might look like, with focus on material and textures. The goal was to develop one concept and then apply different textures, materials and colors resulting in three different looks and emotional expressions of the same concept. The project was a part of an ongoing research project involving Volvo cars, a number of different manufacturers and schools.
PROCESS I started with gathering words from the domain and evaluated them with the help of a survey, to find extended product values. After that the extended product values was divided into word clouds and personas and inspiration boards where created around them.
E VA LUAT E To get a better understanding of what words people relate with the core values of Volvo (safety, quality and environmental care) and what they considered trendy. A questionnaire was distributed and the data gathered is shown in the graphs.

THULE PROJECT 5 Weeks - Group Project - Collaboration Thule
DESIGN BRIEF Thule have seen trends in the interest in outdoor activities which have increased in Sweden, and was interested in looking for an opportunity for a new product category. The company asked the students to look into the segment of instant camping and investigate what opportunity there could be for Thule.
E M PAT H I Z E
To get a better understanding of the idea of instant camping and to experience the environments where the product would be used, we arranged an over-night study trip.

LUMINARE PROJECT 4 Weeks - Light Design - Energy Efficient - No Glare
DESIGN BRIEF The task is to design a luminaire for general lighting eg for offices, schools and conference rooms which means substantially uniform lighting of an area without provision for special local requirements. Choose between pendant, or surface mounted luminaire. We have to use compact LED modules or linear LED as light source in this project. Study how the luminaire can be designed to provide good lighting, while being pleasant to watch, illuminated as well as switched off.

REFINE The luminare concept was refined and modelled in alias. Where the details of construction and appearance where defined.
FINAL CONCEPT
LIGHT Plus Light To remove the glare from the light source a acrylic plastic of the type satine is snaps into place in front of the LEDs. This removes the glare with minimum Illuminance lost. With the size benefits from led you get this open luminare that gives every environment a new character. It also gives ambient and direct light and can be turned to fit a variety of situations and use cases. By having only a few repeating parts the luminare will be easier to manufacture.
