Digital product designer, leader & founder
Based in Copenhagen
St George's St, Norwich - '24
Hello friends,
I'm Luke, a craft-lead design leader from the UK living in Copenhagen Denmark.
I honed my skills in London, where I worked on some incredible products together with some of the biggest household names and some of the best digital product agencies out there.
I moved to Scandinavia and founded my own digital product studio where I've used everything I know about building exceptional digital products to help founders of early stage startups grow their ideas and allow their businesses to thrive.
I'm as comfortable and capable workshopping ideas with the top brass, as I am walking a cross functional team through my latest designs and flows - and while I've been in the game for a long time now, I'm still happiest when I'm getting my hands dirty on the tools with the people building the finished article.
Outside of work, I'm a hobbyist musician, an ornithology and wildlife nerd, and a dyed in the wool Norwich City FC fan.
If you'd like to talk about the prospect of working together, let's grab a coffee and chat.

I've built things over the years together with some of these fine folk:
A few firm favourites
Here's some of my favourite projects from recent years.

Some other career highlights, showcased on other people’s websites

Let’s talk about values
Here’s a set of principles that guide me in the work I do. Equal parts manifesto and personal checklist of things to always remember.
Play the game better or play a better game
This one's a little bit down to my punk rock roots. I’ve always been a challenger of convention.
People are the most complicated part
No decision of significance happens without involving people. Failing to understand them is just plain failing.
Difficult questions from a place of love
I work to foster relationships where it’s safe to debate, and speak candidly, with the spirit of friendship.
The constant hunt for ‘good enough’
The fine art of balancing a high degree of quality, with a pragmatism around launching and learning.
If we’re not learning, do something else
I've vowed to never plateau. I need to know progression is happening, even if it's not the progression I planned.
Give your all to those you care most about
I approach everything with integrity. But I move the earth for the people who have truly earned my trust.
