ABOUT ME
Hi! My name is Hanna Rönntoft, I’m 25 years old and I’m from a town called Piteå in northern Sweden. My strengths as a designer are that I always try my best to understand the users experience of the product and I’m not afraid to do mock-ups of products to do user testing during the design process. I especially love to work together in a group and I get excited about seeing possible work flow improvements or services that could help people in their life.

SIT UAT IO N O F TO DAY
52 % of Sweden’s total area is forest
50 % of that forest is owned by private owners
A majority of that forest is inherited from family members
The new forest owners no longer live on the forest property and feel dis-attached
BRIEF
“How can we support the new forest owners in the best way possible? ”
USER PERSONA
In order to understand the need for this future user we decided to make up a user persona. These traits are based on interviews and statistics mixed with trend analysis.
This is Isabelle

FOREST OWNERSHIP She inherits the forest from grandparents
WORK She can work from wherever through her computer
BACKGROUND PERSONALITY She likes the thought of shared ownership - decides to share it with her three cousins
She was raised in the city and dis-attached from nature and forestry
USER NEEDS
What would Isabelle want from a service/product?
PLANNING Easy way of seeing what and when things needs to be done
TASKS SHARING A way to share her tasks with her cousins
FOREST KNOWLEDGE
FOREST PROGRESSION
A way to get more knowledge about forestry
And more specific get information about her own forest and its progress

It’s hard to remeber what the different knobs do. They all kind of look the same.
It looks complicated. I’m afraid I’m going to do something wrong, so then i don’t do anything at all.
