@Stavn

I am a designer living and working in the San Francisco Bay Area. Typically I am found behind my standing desk building interfaces for the industrial internet at GE Software. I can also be found in cafés with a coffee working on the occasional project.

Before I came to the west coast I designed objects for humans in Chicago, built a small but grand photography company, and ran my own prototype shop, Beta Objects. For a brief second I saw my place in the future of humanizing the internet of things, the rest is history. Now I am in the nexus between interface and object, bridging the gap of design theoretic to tangible experiences.

The purpose of this site is a living body of my work contributions and collaborations. Some of these are well documented projects, others simply a stream of consciousness. Things that grow too large for this space will take flight into their own.

The perspectives and opinions on this site are my own.
