This is Design by Umeå
A platform for visualizing smart and progressive solutions within the design movement taking place in Umeå, a young and rapidly growing university city in the north of Sweden. Characterized by openminded people full of initiative, who help each other forward. We welcome the new – people, cultural expressions, research findings and design.

Design with Umeå
We believe that design is key in creating our sustainable future. A process that listens, learns, and ultimately designs a solution that is better than the former. Whether it is products, urban development, interaction, research, or services. Umeå values and honors the qualities that characterize good design: knowledge, experience and confidence, curiosity, craftsmanship and perhaps above all - a willingness to cooperate.
