Who am I ?

My name is Emil Öhlén, a 25-year-old coffee loving student from Höga Kusten. I'm studying engineering in industrial design with a master in product design at LTU.

I'm a driven and committed student who likes graphic design, CAD, creative processes, product development and prototyping. When I work, I'm structured, hardworking and always meet deadlines. In my free time I train, photograph and am involved in student associations. I think my creative abilities influence my work a lot, I like discussions on details in projects and collaboration to take the result to the next level. In my work, I find energy in problem-solving and attention to details.

With my design I want to have a clear intention on what problems that it solves, intention in details and materials. This is something I always try to focus on and analyze in every step of the process.
