About me

Tjena tjena :) I'm Mattias, a UX and UI designer in Lund with a background in systems science. Most projects start with understanding how a system behaves, what people are actually trying to do, and where the friction comes from. I lean toward clear logic, simple structure and straightforward communication because it keeps both the design and the process honest.


Details matter a lot to me. Small shifts in spacing, shape, timing or interaction can completely change how something feels, and I pay close attention to those moments. The goal is always the same: make the design so intuitive that people don’t notice the work behind it.


Curiosity drives much of how I learn and work. I break things apart, ask direct questions and test ideas early instead of guessing. I pick things up quickly, especially when I can see how a system fits together, and I’ve noticed that design moves faster when workflows stay clean, expectations are clear and conversations are open.


When I’m not designing, I’m probably training, cooking, taking photos, thrifting, or unintentionally spending way too long inside a game.
