About · Copenhagen / remote

Hej, I’m Ida.

I’m a brand and product designer in Copenhagen. I spent six years at two studios before going independent in 2015, and I still work the same way: one problem, one strong idea, carried all the way to the shelf.

Most clients stay for years. I work with founders and in-house teams on identities, packaging, apps and magazines, usually as a team of one and sometimes with a writer, a developer and a photographer I trust.

When I am not at the desk I am in a print shop, at a flea market looking for old colour guides, or swimming in the harbour all year round.

02

Packaging
