About
Anna-Lena Moeckl
Diplom-Designer
Product & Service Design | Research & Strategy | Color, Material & Technology
*1990 in Bad Hersfeld, Germany
The design profession inspires me because of the diverse possibilities to open up new spaces and (user) experiences and to use potentials. Here, the combination of function and aesthetics are especially important to me, but also holistic considerations, backgrounds and processes. The specific, perceptive and analytical view as a designer is significant. The value for the user and its experience of symbolic or connotative meanings are extremely exciting from a design perspective. Innovations can only arise through empathizing with the situation and the customer, as well as out-of-the-box thinking and teamwork.
My work is characterized by a structured approach and strategic, conceptual and analytical strengths. On the one hand, I am interested in the big picture – a holistic approach with overarching questions – and on the other hand in the small details – the macrophotographic close-up view of surfaces and structures, e.g. of materials and technologies. Experimental handling can also be essential in the development process.
I am also impressed by design theory and design science, as I believe that design theory and practice can enrich each other.
As a motivated designer with a plenty of empathy in concept and design processes as well as a sense of details I would like to advance the discipline of design.
I´m interested and experienced in the following areas:
- health
- mobility
- service
- sustainability
- material
- color
- experimental
- technology
- interaction/user experience
