Gustav Mårtensson, Product designer (UX/UI)

From Good to Award-Winning

I’ve helped transform good products into great ones by refining user experiences, optimizing design systems and accessibility, ensuring seamless functionality. Some of these products have even gone on to win awards, recognizing both their innovation and impact.

I’m looking for my next opportunity —whether it’s joining a team, building something groundbreaking, collaborating with visionary minds, or simply connecting with people who share my drive for design and problem-solving.

Why I design

I love solving problems. Maybe because I’ve wrestled with so many myself.As a photographer, I ran my own business for years. The bigger I got, the less time I spent actually taking photos. Accounting, planning, client requests, addresses, dates, travel—the list never ended. I searched for smart solutions to give me some breathing room, but most were expensive, clunky, or just didn’t get it. Every now and then, a startup would come along with a product that actually made my life easier. I loved that feeling.And then, standing at a tech conference in Stockholm, camera in hand, it hit me. I was on the wrong side. I didn’t just want better tools—I wanted to create them. I wanted to shake things up, rethink the way industries worked, and build solutions that actually made a difference. I knew I had it in me. Design had always been a part of me, but I had kept it on the sidelines, as a passion project.So I became a UX & UI designer. Since then, I’ve helped turn good products into great ones. Some have even won awards.But I’m not done yet.I still haven’t built the product that changes the game. The one that flips an industry on its head and gives people—people like I once was—the freedom to focus on what they do best.That’s where I’m headed.
