Born and raised in the north of Sweden by in uentialparents I have developed a creative lust which wasmanifested already at an early age. Drawing animals,building Lego structures and creating collages simplyevolved into computer generated images, lm editing,webdesign and art.
My upbringing also taught me to be a good listener andneighbor, to be ambitious and never give up as well asto enjoy the good things, moments and tastes of life.I am a curious person who has an insatiable appetitefor new knowledge and experiences. Science, biologyand psychology are close to my heart. Moreover I thinkstudying people and behaviors are really interesting andequally important to create the best designs.
When I rst was enlightened about industrial design Iinstantly felt it was something for me. A channel to outletmy creativity and curiosity of the world; creating good anduseful products for the users and the society.
- Sailing, snowboarding and all kinds of sports- Hunting, shing and spending time in the forest- Music, movies, art, photography and playing guitar - Carpentry work- Travelling- Cooking
Besides extensive knowledge of design methodology andproblem solving, my characteristics are quick visualizationby sketching, creative mind and being a communicative andconvincing person.
People describe me as a person with good overview ofthe projects which might be a reason why I often take acoordinating role.

Concept motor grader
Description
Master degree project
Sponsored by Volvo Construction Equipment
Year: 2008 - 2009Duration: 20 weeks
Designer: Fredrik Nilsson
Awards: Guldmyran 2009 for best degree project
The brief from Volvo Construction Equipment was to study variousconstruction machines and the road building process to seek opportu-nities for new products or improvements.
Interesting outcome from research led to the design of a new motorgrader concept - machine proven to be very difficult to operate withan important role for creating safe quality roads.

Rough gradin
The motor grader
snow remova
The motor grader is a 22 ton and ten meter longmachine carrying a huge blade with the purpose
to create at roads. This machine push out thedifferent layers of gravel before asphalt coversit all. While doing so, the motor grader operatorcreates the cambered cross section of roads for
the water drainage. The heavy graders are alsoused in maintenance work of old gravel roads
as well as removing snow and ice in northerncountries. The great adjustment features ofthe blade makes it possible to sculpt incliningcurves, ditches and driveways.
Motor graders could be called thedoctors of roads. They play a vital role ingiving birth to roads making sure theyrein a good quality to not get damage bywater. During the lifetime of roads motorgrader renew rain damaged gravel roadsand clear driveways of snow and ice.

research
The initial research took place at both a roadbuilding and a railroad construction site as well
a visit at the Volvo testing arena in Eskilstuna.Various machines were explored as well asdiscussions with operators and foremen.
When the motor grader direction wereestablished in depth studies began at Eskilstunawhich included driving and operation themachine.

problem areas
The length of the motor grader meansthat the machine has a wide turningradius and can not reach all the way into
sharp corners or narrow spaces. The mostcommon accident with graders are in
intersections where the driver has to runout six meter in to the crossing beforehe can see any thing. The position of the
cabin limits the visibility when workingas well.
Being placed behind the blade theoperator can not really see what is goingon in front of the blade . The operatorhas to rely to his experience and "sense"when it is time to lift the blade for asewer pipe or similar. He has not clue ofhow much material he has left or whatthe ow of the material is l ike.

Observing bump Be prepared Compensate height
problem areas
It might be a remnant from the timewhen graders were drawn by horses butthe fact that the blade is connected to
the frame and the front axle without anysuspension creates a lot of difficulties forthe operator to manage the machine.
If the front wheels runs over a bumpthe blade will be affected and create anew bump for the rear wheels to runover and yet another bump is created,hence the operator has to be obser vantand compensate bumps and holeswith the blade while simultaneously asmaneuvering the grader.

To identify the essential functions and different situationsthe robot had to handle was important in order to gureout which sensors that should be used.
To name a few things it was essential that the robot didn'tharm or make a threat for other living creatures in itssurrounding. It had to tell the different between snowand other objects as well as know where it was allowed tooperate and what to do with the removed snow.
A high priority goal was to make a easy and user friendlyset-up the machine and its working premises.
Problems to solve- Setting up working premises- Detecting humans and animals- Differentiating between snow and other objects- Detecting approaching snow plough or cars- Removing snow banks- Navigation- Handling different types of snow- Communication and interaction

Snow gets different characteristics dependingon the temperature. The robot had to be able tohandle wet snow as well as smaller snow banks.
These are different ideas of how the robot coulddig into the snow and remove it from the path.After evaluating the ideas the t raditional snowblower principle where snow is being carvedand thrown to the side in one sequence seem tobe most the efficient way.

The challenge was to design a robotic snowblower that didn't look like an ordinary snowblower without handles. The intention was tocreate a unied design to t the householdrobot language as well making it sleek to endurerain and snow.
Various setups of track belts and wheels wereexplored as well as different ways to direct thethrown snow.
Later it became an issue to create a visualbalance, making the machine look powerfuland at the same time make sure it had enoughcontact with the ground to ensure a good grip.

Ideation The nal concept was based on an idea thatthinner track belts ran around the wholemachine making it use its whole length forcontact and better grip. At the same time thebelts would assist carving into snowbanks at thefront end . The increased pressure on the thintrack belts would also strengthen the grip.
At this stage the robot also changed from havingsort of a face, which could imply a bit cartoonish,to becoming more machine-like.

Stockholm is growing. The public transportationis getting overpowered and SL* are planingto re-establish trams into the city. The Frenchtram and train producer Alstom requested theAdvanced Product Design class to do a study ofwhat a this future tram would be like in order toful ll the needs of Stockholm and its inhabitants.
The class were brought down to Paris andBordeaux to study the most modern tramway inEurope. During the same trip the class stayed inStockholm to study the situation and to absorbthe atmosphere.

Studying the tram in Bordeaux it became clearhow nice modern trams are - No more shriekingbrakes or shaky rides. It was an amazing way asa tourist to see the city.
Trams are people movers and requires easy andfast entering / exiting in order to be ef cient. It
is a vital part of a city and has to be accessiblefor everyone. The problem is that the onlyplace with enough space for wheelchairs,prams and baggage is just in front of the doors,hence it easily obstructs the exiting/enteringand becomes a quite unpleasant situation foreveryone.

Stockholm color scheme
Stockholm is a city with a color paletteof saturated earth tones and ochre. Itinterlace with nature and stretches overislands and water. Hence it becomesvividly blue and green during the summerseason.
A variational climate and six month ofdarkness has made Swedes very weatherconscious people, that take every chancethey get to absorb the sun.

Inspiration for the future themewere inuences from architectural

Ski-trams was a good parable of the vision."Taking a tour with a great view whichcreated excitement - just somethingvisitors had to try". The goal would be tocreate an icon for Stockholm - What theyellow cabs are for New York.

Lots of brainstorming on new ways oftransporting people, detailed problemsand situations nally generated awinning concept - The double deckertram.
The trigger idea was the possibilityto create a tram with a much morespacious ground oor. A place forstanding people on shorter trips andwhere wheelchairs and prams wouldn'tbe forced to a small designated space.
Passengers with more time could goupstairs and sit down. The higher viewwould enhance the travel experience.

it easy to keep time tables. Each end ofthe tram is equipped with scanners andidentication systems to prevent accidentswith pedestrians or cars.
Windows and roof are automatically tinteddepending on amount of sunlight.

DescriptionDesign for user experience - Domestic air travellersSponsored by Scandinavian Airlines
Year: 2006Duration: 10 weeks
Designer: Fredrik Nilsson
The brief of this project was to study the in-check process of domesticair travellers and map out problems an d situations to design a productfor. The class were split up in three groups and vi sited three differentairports. All studies, analysis and parts of the ideation were done ingroups. The SAS Travel Companion is a pers onal information device forhelping travelers to focus in the stressful airport atmosphere as well asbeing a branding aid for the SAS s ervice value.

pDesign for user experience | The air traveller
Travel Companion is a portable informationdevice that shows the personal flightinformation and assist passengers duringthe whole trip. Gate number, destinationand time for departure are presentedon the desktop. Delays, continues flightsand baggage status are automaticallyupdated and notified by the Companion.
Positioning via airport WLAN and digitalcompass enables the Travel Companion toguide passengers around the airport. Thiscould for example help a late passengerto nd his or her way through a big air-port complex, or perhaps be a handy guidethroughout the whole check-in process.
Travel Companion will also be a new channelfor SAS to strengthen their position as a servicebrand by caring for good traveller interaction.
Devices are mounted in the trolleys from oneside and are picked up from the other side. Thismake the face of the pick up clean without anymessy neck-laces.
The trollies are shifted between departureand arrival halls when emptied and relled.

Accessible four point seat belt
DescriptionBachelor degree projectSponsored by SAAB Automobile
Year: 2006Duration: 10 weeks
Designer: Fredrik Nilsson
The goal of this project was to create a four point seat belt system thatwas more accessible than before. The initial task became to prove 2point seat belts to not be accessible either.
Another goal of the project was to emphasize on aeroplane heritage ofSAAB trying to nd new conceptual or marketing-worthy ideas sur-rounding the design.

Symmetrical fastening ithis problems and increa20%.
Todays crash test dummies are notshowing realistic crash statistics dueto their hard structure and limitedagility. Computer generated (Finiteelement) simulations with morerealistic dummies prove that front seatpassengers are put in rotation due to
the asymmetrical fastening. This is notvisible in test with physical crash testdummies.
People are being rotated out of theseat belt and hits head and body intodoor structure and interior, Spineand internal organs are being severelystrained by the rotation.
48% of all car crashes occurs asfrontal crashes with a small overlap.This creates a diagonal kinetic energythat strengthens the rotation effectenormously.
Finite Element simulationsshow the unwanted rotationin frontal crashes with 2-pointseat belts.

The nal design and technical mechanisms wereelaborated in foam, solid works and on paper.Various alternative of presenting the belts evolvedduring this phase as well as new insights wreckedsome previous good ideas. Due to the lack of spacearound the neck rest the belt feeders were movedto the backrest of the seat.
The buckle design was design to not only matchthe clean form language of Saab but to express
semantics of safety and locking mechanism.
