Hi, I'm Okra Livia!

I am a UX/UI designer and illustrator from Stockholm, I love art and design and I’m all about designing multimodal and creative solutions where the user is in focus.

My background is from KTH where I have studied Media Technology engineering with a M.Sc. in Interactive Media Technology . I enjoy building beautiful user experiences for both digital and physical products as well as understanding the psychology behind user interactions.

FIGMA | REDESIGN | IPHONE APP
Clue-app redesign
This is a project I did in my free time using Figma. I thought it would be a fun and interesting task to redesign the period tracking app Clue, giving it a more modern look with a new and fresh color scheme as well as some features I have been missing.

Other engagements

Osqledaren
I was an illustrator at Osqledaren, KTH’s student union paper with over 10 000 subscribers, for four years where I did the illustrations for articles that I was assigned and delivered to a deadline. I have worked with many different types of articles, everything from educational ones to political and pure entertainment oriented articles. I have also gotten to work with many different writers as well as quite a few different editors in chief and art directors, since they have been new people each year. Working with so many different people and genres I got to explore different art styles and mediums to create content that suits each article.
Studs
I was part of Studs 2018/2019 which is a student driven project course where we network with relevant companies in the tech industry and end the course with a study trip. I was a member of the travel group, our responsibilities being the planning and execution of the 2,5 weeks long trip for 30 engineering students to the USA. The travel group consisted of five students and we did everything from researching cities, booking flights and hotels as well as coming up with fun activities to do at each destination. On the trip we visited five cities in the USA: New York, New Orleans, Fraser in Rocky Mountains Colorado and San Francisco.
Mottagningen
I was part of the reception at the Media Technology chapter for four years. The aim of the reception is to make the new students feel welcome to the chapter as well as for them to get to know their new classmates and how university studies work. I have been part of the group KPH whose main responsibility is to be group leaders taking care of the new students and be there if they have questions or other things they need help with. As a part of KPH I got to develop my leadership skills as well as social skills since one of our main tasks is to drive the new students to talk to eachother and making sure noone is being left out or feeling insecure.
