LEGO Designs

Becoming a LEGO Designer has been my dream for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I’d build for hours (lots of spaceships) and imagine what it would be like to create LEGO sets for real. That dream stuck with me, even into university, although back then it felt impossible, since I felt like I’d need a mechanical engineering degree just to have a chance.

But as I made my way through my master’s in IT Product Design and later landed an internship at LEGO, something shifted. I saw firsthand that kind of creative people who work there came from all kinds of backgrounds, where the main thing they had in common was that they loved to build and design LEGO, and I realized that maybe there was a place for someone like me too.

My time at LEGO made a huge impact on me and there is no better way to describe it other than that I simply fell in love. It wasn't just the childhood desire to work with bricks for a living, but it was a place where play is celebrated and taken seriously and curiousity is encouraged, and where I didn’t feel like an outsider for once. It felt like a place I could not only work hard, but truly thrive.

Since then, I’ve been focused on building my LEGO design skills. I study how bricks come together, exploring and figuring out what makes a build fun and intuitive, and spend a lot of time just playing and prototyping. Every model here reflects that passion and my ongoing journey toward becoming a LEGO Product Designer.
