About me
Siri Johansson is a Senior Interaction Designer at IDEO London, where she helps organizations in the public and private sectors innovate and create impact. She designs products and systems for our digital age and has experience from a diverse set of project areas including assistive technology, public media surfaces, creative digital tools, media consumption, retail and education.
Prior to IDEO she worked as an industrial designer, something that heavily informs her interaction design practice and her consideration of the contexts in which digital experiences live. She has a special interest in design for the public realm.
Work history
Senior Interaction Designer
MFA thesis at Umeå Institute of Design, in collaboration with Umeå University Library and IDEO.
The project looks at social navigation as a method for discovery and explores how the library could extend its reach and contribute to making urban life more playful and social.
The BookNode concept creates a narrative around each library book and makes its journey tangible by visualizing its digital patina. The concept allows patrons to leave and pick up books around the city, thus influencing what books are made available where.
