Designer / Creative Consultant

Hi I’m Sofia Astrid,

I am originally from Sweden, based in Europe (GMT+2), currently in Stockholm where I work as a Research Engineer at KTH.

My work as a Research Engineer bridges Design Research and Industry building, through an ERC Proof-of-Concept project on Interactive Car Seats.

My design practice explores how AI can be embodied in objects and environments, with a focus on material expression and sensory interaction.

I have shaped my perspective through work in haptics, tangible interaction, and prototyping, alongside sustainability and intercultural communication. Together, these experiences provide a strong foundation for bridging technical development with human-centered design.
