Studio Lina Håkansson

Designing structure / As an experienced paper architect, Lina creates tailor-made design solutions for lightweight paper furniture, retail POP and POS displays, large-scale installations, window staging, trade show booths, packaging and toys. When designing structures, the focus is always on balancing creativity and technical optimization. With years of hands-on expertise in digital CNC processing, the studio likes to explore the possibilities of new, alternative and green materials as a foundation to new concepts. Structuring design / Lina’s unique strength lies in the in-depth understanding of the complete design-print-cut workflow, allowing her to support every design with an extensive technical approach. Ecological concerns such as material selection, waste minimisation and fitting designs to standard shipping formats are all part of the design process. Projects are taken from the first conceptual sketch to the final production file, relying on an extensive range of structural and technical skills. About Lina / Lina graduated from the prestigious design school Broby Grafiska (°Sweden) and has since built up a vast expertise around (paper) structural packaging design (CAD), prepress, conventional print techniques and digital (CNC) cutting. Lina has managed multi-disciplinary product development from start to finish. Trained and consulted with numerous organizations in hardware and software products worldwide and has strong relationships with market-leading companies in packaging, print and material innovation.
