Design Style
In her design work, Nina looks for clever intersections between technology and aesthetics where she can create something functional, informative and delightful. To Nina, the drive to design comes from observing the human interaction with the end product and from wishing to improve the quality of people's lives.
She finds inspiration in travel because of the opportunities to learn from the local culture, character, architecture, and art of cities nationally and internationally. Nina loves how good design can make people smile by improving everyday experiences for the people who interact with her work.
