Urbanista is a small company, and I choosed them as my internship because I wanted to be involved in ”live projects” and to be able to see how a small design company grows. Urbanista is currently growing in a really high phase and are expanding into the international market. Every day was intense and it was inspiring to see how Johan Wahlbäck and Daniel Roos worked day and night, and managed to keep everything under control.

My main responsibility during this internship was to design the interior of a future cabin trolley, together with a lot of  other related products. An open mind in the Urbanista team also allowed my interior design solutions to affect the exterior design. Unfortunatly, I can not show any of the design work I did there due to classification. However, when the cabin trolley will be released (and it will), I’ll post some pictures.

As a gratitude for my work at Urbanista, I got these gifts.
It’s the brand new (released in late august) Urbanista Copenhagen and Urbanista London headphones. I choosed the white ones since I love the look of them. These headphones is also available in the colors; black, metal, red, green and pink.
I really like the design of them, because I think it’s interesting that a company chooses to leave the ordinary round shape of a headphone (and why shouldn’t they? Ears aren’t round).

Here’s some unpacking photos of the Urbanista Copenhagen and Urbanista London headphones.

Edit: This portfolio will soon be updated again with graphical changes and new projects.

We came up with the idea of making an E Number App. E numbers are number codes for food additives that have been assessed for use within the European Union. They are commonly found on food labels throughout the European Union.

Now the App is available for free download on the App Store.
Hope you like my design.
