About .
Hey, I am an industrial designer Triin. I studied architecture in Tallinn University of Applied Sciences before focusing on design studies in the Estonian Academy of Arts, from which I graduated in 2013. My studies of architecture have influenced my personal design style, which strives for simplicity and honesty in structure, resulting in contemporary work of minimalistic style, strong character and above all, function and versatility. Lately I have been moving more towards UX/UI design. But always driven by innovation, end user and business needs .
I have gained international design experience while undertaking internships with Ihanna Home, an Icelandic design studio in Reykjavik, and OK Design, a Danish furniture design firm in Copenhagen. I have also worked for several years with best architecture practices in Estonia such as KAVAKAVA architects and 3+1 architects.
Most recently I worked as a graphic and product designer at Nordic Automation Systems (an industrial automation company creating sensor technologies, data analysis and monitoring solutions).
Currently, my focus is Milrem Robotics, where I work as a user experience and interface designer. The goal is to improve the unmanned ground vehicle control system.
Here you will find my portfolio and I am always up to meet to introduce my projects closer .)
