Background

About Anton Wikstedt

I am a creative mind and critical design thinker with a strong retail background. I excel in foresight, and I master a diverse range of design practices. I am a systemic designer and proactive doer who moves instinctively between material and immaterial design. I have the ability to create compelling concepts through conceptualization and service design. I am very reflective, and I seek to create meaning in the work I do. I value details and stories and I have a deep understanding in systemic thinking and strategic development. My analytical nature and interdisciplinary background makes me skilled in research and in addition, I'm able to synthetize my thinking too. For instance, I’m familiar with both problem- and process-based design approaches and I work by utilizing multi, inter, and transdisciplinary practices. I am outgoing, trustworthy, and methodical with a high work morale. I truly enjoy working with people and a natural part of my character is my genuine cheerfulness which often influences my colleagues. I am experienced in project management and am often described as a vital member of the team. I have done collaborations with companies and institutions in Finland and internationally. I am passionate about what I do and want my work to last the test of time.
