ABOUT ME
My name is Julia Lundkvist, born and raised in Gothenburg and now living in Malmö in southern Sweden. I love this city, it's so small but it has everything I need! Can get around by foot or by bike. Too bad the accent down here is so weird, but hey, can't get everything!
I love to try out new food and test out new craft beers. Games, movies and series are a big inspiration when I draw. Don't get fooled by my goofyness (is that a word?), my work is serious business.
Being a designer is part of my identity, which means I embrace every project and put my heart in it. I can never think: "It's just a job". It's my passion and my hobby. My constant need to grow drives me to learn more and become a better designer.
I love to talk design, why don't we take a Swedish fika together?

Interests
Julia is an food lover, animal lover and an adventurer.
Her interest in food makes her want to travel. Food is a core in many cultures and believes there is a story to every dish.
Ever since she was a child she wanted to be surrounded by animals, which is why she now have 2 cats and one dog. Food and drink themed names of course! Toffee, Whiskey and Salsa!
Another childhood dream was to be able to breath under water while feeling weightless. That’s why she took the scuba diver certificate as an adult. If her travels takes her to a place with water, she want to squeeze in at least one dive. Being underwater is meditating for Julia, letting her control her buoyancy with only her breath while surrounded by fish.
