Hello! I’m Gabriel.
ABOUT
Gabriel Uggla is a Swedish UX designer creating delightful visuals, services and products at NoA Ignite in Oslo, Norway.
As a born and raised Scandinavian, Gabriel strives to design simple, thoughtful, and beautiful experiences for everyone. His work usually lives at the intersection of physical and digital design, with the user experience at the core. Gabriel has experience designing for a wide range of platforms, including consumer electronics, mobile apps, web, wearables, bicycles, and cars.
In his career Gabriel has been fortunate to live and work in Sweden, Austria, The Netherlands, California, Germany, and Norway —allowing him to experience several inspiring people, places, brands and design. Along the way he has also been honored to have some of his work published, exhibited, and awarded.
When not designing, Gabriel likes to play with his son, practice photography, ride his bicycle, or create yet another Spotify playlist.
