Design × AI
I design how teams work with AI.
Design systems for enterprise and the public sector taught me how organizations ship. AI is changing what shipping means. Everything on this site comes from that work: shipped systems, essays and talks.
Based in Helsinki, Finland.

Writing
All writing →Agents are now consumers of your design system. What changes for contracts, governance and the team, in what order to change it and what should stay human.
Components get the budget, but the tools around them decide whether the system holds. Three shipped tools, three failure modes they close and an honest account of what building them costs.
Why your tool choices are design decisions — and what mine reveal about how I work.
