Hi, my name is Emma Hansson and i'm UX designer based in Gothenburg.
My design journey so far has been a mix of professions, cities, and design detours, but one thing has remained constant—my love for design, the craftsmanship behind it, and my drive to always keep learning.
With a background in accessory design, I hold a bachelor’s degree in design from Designskolen Kolding. My experience in fashion and retail, from interning at Ecco Design Studio to years in visual merchandising at Indiska, has given me a strong foundation in user-centered design, problem-solving, and aesthetics.

Now, I’m channeling all of that into UX design, where I strive to create seamless, intuitive, and visually engaging experiences.
And I may not be known for be the loudest person in the room, but that has made me highly observant, considerate, and a great listener
- qualities that help me design with empathy and attention to detail.
All the inters at GANT, fall 2025, me in the center front on the floor.
