Tomas Friberg’s Summary
Objective:
To make technology (in whatever form, shape or color) usable and attractive, for the user as well as for the market - and have a great time while doing it!
Summary:
I am an art director and interaction designer with more than ten years experience in visual communication, web design and computers.
I worked in the graphic design business before Macintosh was de facto standard, hosted bulletin board systems before the web entered our conscience, put Volvo on the web when Internet became available.
I am the guy who didn’t learn to program but knew what the technology and technologists made possible.
I am the guy who learned what the users really wanted from technology.
Tomas Friberg’s Specialties:
Interaction design, graphic design, web standards compliance, HTML, CSS, Mac/PC networking and configuration, Axure, all Adobe and Macromedia products.
