This is a computer chassis concept that I developed during my master's thesis in industrial design engineering. The aim with the thesis was to improve user experience in custom computer assembly, specifically in small form factor chassis. Unlike traditional computer chassis, this one is delivered in a flat package to the consumer, and is assembled alongside the components to provide an open building environment. Most SFF chassis also tend to be very expensive, which is why this chassis has been designed cost-efficient production through aluminium extrusion and laser cutting.
The main feature of this chassis is the tool-less extruded design. Almost the entire chassis is assembled without any screws, the user simple slide pieces into each other, for which they lock into place using magnets. This also allows the user to remove panels to access the internal components more easily, which can be useful when replacing, performing maintenance, and/or upgrading components.

Luna is a minimalistic food scale with an intuitive and simple user interface. It has only the most necessary features: on, off, reset and the option to switch between metric and imperial units. Thanks to Luna's proportions, larger plates and kitchenware can fit on top of the scale without obstructing the weight display.
When Luna is not being used, the cylindrical power button is recessed into the device. To power Luna on, the user presses the button which elevates it, allowing it to be rotated to access its features.
Luna is available in two variants, dark and light.
Chassis N.01 is a mini-ITX enclosure designed for custom water-cooling. The chassis has a volume of roughly 35 litres, and has a dual-chamber design. The front chamber mainly houses all of the components while the rear chamber is used to route cables and the water-cooling loop. For added convenience during assembly, every component mounts to a single sheet of aluminium. This facilitates an open assembly environment where no part of chassis interferes with the building process.
This is an ongoing project and the chassis is estimated to be manufactured and finished during the spring of 2022.
In this project, me and my project partner worked in collaboration with BIMobject, the largest online BIM platform, to improve their product page. We conducted an extensive user research study by conducting interviews and distributing surveys to various architecture firms, contractors, and other users of BIMobject. Through careful examination of the user insights and a rigorous ideation process, we created a hi-fi prototype using Adobe XD and programming in HTML, CSS, and Java.
The prototype of the product page was restructured to highlight the features that users value the most. It now has a less condensed layout, allowing each feature cover more space and adding more white-space and balance to the website. The most important feature, downloads, has also been organized into a filterable list, allowing the user's to find what they’re looking for more efficiently.
Aria is a concept robot vacuum cleaner developed to fit the design language of a pre-existing brand, in this case, POC.
In this project, my team and I analysed POC’s design language in close detail, ideated to create a shape that resembled POC as well as possible. The physical prototype was then modelled in clay, 3D-scanned and 3D-modelled in Alias, Siemens NX and then manufactured through CNC-milling and vacuum-forming.
The project is covered in more detail at behance.
Foodloop is a grocery store bulk food system concept developed for commercial grocery stores to reduce food waste and packaging. The concept builds on a pre-existing movement called 'zero-waste shopping' which essentially means that the consumer brings their own containers to the grocery store which they fill with different foods in bulk, eliminating the packaging for every product.
Foodloop is also a set of containers that consumers can purchase or borrow at grocery stores. The containers are stackable and easy to organize thanks to their triangular shape, they come in three sizes to fit different kinds of food.
