Space Beast Terror Fright

---

Space Beast Terror Fright is a hard-core first person shooter developed by nornware with roots in the arcade games of the 1980s and the seminal FPS games of the 1990s. The game supports both single-player, local co-op, as well as networked multiplayer in LAN and over the Internet. Space Beast Terror Fright is available on Steam.

I built all the "level styles" for the game using nornware's proprietary tools as well as Quixel's Suite in conjunction with Adobe Photoshop, which consisted of lots of tangent space normal maps and albedo / specular textures. I was also involved in many other things ranging from project management, game design, user interface design, icon design, and colour design. I also built some 3d models (props) as well as did weapon design, modelling and texturing in Z-Brush, Wings 3D, and Substance Painter.

Bloom

---

Bloom is a platform game by nornware where I created much of the graphics and music. It all started when I commented on the colour design and ended with me taking on responsibility for all of the art. Play Bloom here for free.

Saerfus

---

Saerfus is a suggestive platform game inspired by my time working in a paint store. Saerfus is a little dude who spends his days working hard and dreaming of a better life. He learns to mix different colours of paint in order to magically escape from the warehouse where he works.

I did a lot of the art as well as designed all of the puzzles in the game. The game was developed together with Johannes Norneby of nornware, and you can play it for free via the nornware launcher.

Photography

The bridge to the island of Tjörn. Taken while out walking on midsummer's day.

Fuerteventura. Photographing the surf boards was easier than the surfing lessons... :)

Västkusten, Sweden. On a little boating trip with my ex-mother-in-law.

Cabo Verde. The container has been built into the building itself.

Cabo Verde. Chocolate and cognac appetizer.

Delsjön, Göteborg. Our power was out, so we took the chance to take a long walk and discuss some game design.

Fuerteventura. Red flag flying on the beach the whole trip.

Cabo Verde. I loved the way the sand blew around and made the beach all fuzzy.

Berlin. I've discovered that every city has unique manhole covers!

Skåne, Sweden. On the way south on a road trip to Europe. It started with a freezing swim. Jellyfish and a boat in harmony.

Viareggio, Italy.

Bosa, Sardinia. The colour of the net made me drop to the ground.

Tile patterns

---

I have a huge obsession with tiles so I started create a lot of patterns for tiles.

Cabo Verde. I was on the beach at Cabo Verde for two weeks and did a lot of bonafide pen-and-paper drawing. When I got home I scanned everything and chopped it all up in Photoshop to make many tiling patterns.

Kurbits. Drawn by hand, scanned and layed out in Photoshop. I'm thinking this could be a nice pattern on ceramic tile.

Threesurf. Made in Repper.

Marie. A mix of hand-drawings and shapes made in Illustrator.

Sommarfötter (Summer feet). Bare feet signify summer to me!

Smultron (wild strawberries) is drawn by hand, scanned and remade in Photoshop.

Japan. Made in Photoshop.

Reptiler (Reptiles). Drawn by hand, scanned and layed out in Photoshop.

Vår (spring). Drawn by hand, scanned and layed out in Photoshop.

Interior design

---

I love colours and patterns, and I want to use them to grant people more joy in their homes. I am against consumerism and am interesting in finding ways to re-use and beautify all the things that we already have access to. Therefore finding things second hand, re-painting and re-wallpapering are my best friends! My style is definitely not for the timid... :)

My kitchen with happy wallpaper.

Here I've put up pieces of wallpaper on my cupboards using adhesive. This is a good trick if you are just renting the place.

I created an all-purpose hanger in my foyer using steel mesh.

These flower pots have been re-painted to match my current colour theme.

Colourful espresso cups and a flower pot customized with bottle caps.

I designed the kitchen table and collected all the bottle caps myself.

The steel mesh hanger.

I designed and built this jewelery-hanger with things from the home depot.

This is a summer cottage I redesigned to be more colorful.

I used hooks instead of regular handles on the cupboards.

Picture frames themed green and gold.

From when my kitchen was blue, green and gold.

Palettes

---

I was commissioned to create some alternative colour palettes for the planning tool Dreamler. These are the themes I arrived at, each featuring a mood board and a five colour palette. As Dreamler is all about planning dreams, these are examples of the dreams of imaginary users.

Dream: To style an advertising agency in the theme of 'Mad Men'.

Dream: To compete in athletic fitness.

Dream: To sail around the world.

Dream: A romantic countryside wedding.

Dream: To organize a fashion show.

Dream: To found an outdoor preschool.

Dream: To build a motorcycle.

Miscellaneous

---

nornware did some tests on a speculative user interface based on hexagons mapped to the inside of a vertical cylinder. I designed the colour theme, set up the glows, built the buttons, and did the layout.

I have of course painted my ukelele!

I made some electronic music in Ableton Live which Johannes Norneby produced and mixed. The project is called Tiny Tones and is available on Spotify.

These palettes were used in the development of the game Ufo Pilot: Astro-Creeps Elite. The challenge was to choose seven colors that were as unique as possible (much tasty colour theory here!)
