Hey, I’m Morten, a creative craftsman in the digital world, and this is how I came into my craft

From Denmark to Japan, my path has always been guided by a love for making things, whether crafting digital experiences, building identities, or experimenting with physical materials. Curiosity has been the constant thread, drawing me toward new cultures, tools, and ways of seeing the world.

That instinct naturally led me into digital design. Over the years, I’ve worked across industries, countries, and teams, helping create products, systems, and brand experiences for businesses and organisations of all sizes. My work blends visual design, interaction, and front-end awareness to build digital experiences that feel intentional, expressive, and alive.
What I enjoy most is the craft itself – finding structure in complexity, turning ideas into something people can feel, and using motion and storytelling to bring clarity and emotion to digital products.

In any collaboration, I bring a calm, thoughtful presence and a strong sense of responsibility for the work. I step into teams with ease, adapt quickly, and contribute where it matters most. My approach is grounded in care, curiosity, and a belief that great digital experiences are shaped through empathy, exploration, and craft.

Morten is one of the finest UI designers I’ve worked with in my 5+years design career. He is passionate about creating digital solutions that bring genuine value to users, and his work showcases exceptional attention to detail while staying current with modern design trends. His front-end development expertise is also invaluable when communicating with developers.

In our previous project together, even when working with Japanese clients, he quickly understood their needs and skillfully incorporated this understanding into his designs. Both clients and I have seen the outstanding results of his work.

As a team player, Morten constantly challenges the status quo and proposes more effective solutions that bring value to the entire team. As a senior designer, he also excels at giving guidance and mentoring, sharing his knowledge with other team members in a clear and structured way.

Having worked with Morten for the past 2 years, I’ve observed his exceptional digital design skills and witnessed how he supports his teammates as a kind and caring member to achieve better outcomes. It was a pleasure to work with him.

Chingying Lin

I worked closely with Morten for almost three years while building an ambitious creative digital agency with Morten as a key player in executing on our most prominent digital design solutions.

Morten is always on the lookout for what's next and has a strong eye for spotting design trends and capturing the visual DNA of clients on all levels.

I have always been impressed by the speed and thoroughness (two things that does not normally go hand in hand) of which Morten is able to create digital visual identities for clients and build entire design systems for websites, apps, etc.

Working closely with Morten has also given me insights into what an extraordinary individual he is; a strong and professional guy yet with the biggest and softest heart. Morten always looks for the bigger picture of every situation no matter if it is in business or personal – one of the few individuals where it all blends together in the best possible way and the shared goal of building the digital solutions of tomorrow is always the north star we are pushing towards together.

Morten had to leave us as he was moving from Denmark to Japan, but our door will always be open for him if he decides to go back and until then I envy the next employer of Morten.

I’ve been working with Morten a couple of times in two different companies. With Morten you will get a digital designer who is really fast, that will deliver good quality and understands tech. I can only recommend Morten.

Nicolai Elmqvist

CEO
at Pointvoucher

I've had the pleasure of having Morten on my team as Senior UI/UX designer here at Pointvoucher.

Morten came in to the company at a time where we needed a new CVI, which included a brand new website with a bunch of new exiting features and flows. I was really impressed with Mortens ability to hit the mark with very little information and his ability to dish out great designs in ludacris speeds...

Morten has also been the main driver on building the identity for our partner universes called Connect and Publish - both have received very positive feedback from partners and business developers.

If your looking for a great designer who can deliver quality designs and concepts in no time, but still with the users experience and interests at heart, you should reach out to Morten. He has my highest recommendations.

Jesper Geisler Hansen

CPO

I have had the pleasure of working in close cooperation with Morten for nearly half a year. Morten was responsible for developing new design concepts and marketing creatives for some of the most innovative and fast-growing financial institutions in Northern Europe.

His advanced skillset in the field of digital design combined with his background as front-end developer makes Morten a beneficial addition to any organization. He has a genuine interest in design and he appreciates to challenge Fintech decision makers to be innovative and forward-looking.

Besides his obvious design skills, Morten is a funny and an all-around great colleague with a stable work attitude. His dismissal from Firstborn Capital is solely a result of a strategic cooperation with external resources.

I truly wish Morten good luck in the future and would highly recommend him.

Jonas Krøis Damsted

Co-founder & Partner
at Firstborn Capital

I had the pleasure to work with Morten. He is a talented passionate designer. Always ready to push the boundaries for great design. I wish you all the best Morten.

Morten worked in my department as a junior digital designer. He was methodical, dedicated and engaged in the projects he was assigned to. He was also fast and efficient. Morten is passionate about digital design and creating great UX. He fitted in well with our agency culture and was always willing to give a helping hand. He still has much to learn, but his eagerness and dedication are a great asset.

Clare McNally

Creative Director
at K&R

I've had the plesure to have Morten on my team. First of all, Morten is a nice guy, and he is very dedicated. Fortunately he is also very skilled within the field of design, and especially digital design. Morten takes great pride in staying up to speed with the newest tendencies and best practices. Given his past in front-end development, he is very good to build good relationship with the developers, which makes it a joy to have him on the team. Morten is very social, and he will never skip a friday bar. He probably drinks faster than you! All the best to you good man!

See you in the bar,
Thomas Pries

For the past half year, I have worked intensively together with Morten on various projects including the new redesign for Huset Markedsføring - Dansk Markedsføring. This project had a high degree of complexity and was a huge site, where several areas within structure, processes and flows had to be rethought from the bottom - membership flow, payment, newsletters with more.

Morten fearlessly approached the assignment - as a result ended up with him taking over the entire design process from one of our Senior Digital Designers, because we felt the case were in safe and good hands. His outputs are on a high level that you often forget that he is not a senior designer. Always with inputs and design considerations that you only expect from more heavy qualified designers.

Morten is the kind of person that always stays updated on the newest opportunities within technology and the latest shifting trends, which provides him with an extra force in contributing with great concepts and ideas in regards to new requirements and procedures. Morten also understands Frontend development which provides him with an advantage when he designs, that he is constantly thinking in terms of how it should be coded or implemented. Additionally Morten was a socially engaged employee who greatly contributed to the culture of the place. Always with a positive attitude to work and colleagues. He has been a big asset to the design department and the company in general.

It has been a pleasure to work with Morten, and I hope I get the opportunity to work with him again someday.

David Cytryn

Senior Producer

I managed Morten directly at my time in Konstellation. Morten is a hard worker and a talented designer. He is also a funny and nice guy to work with.
