Multidisciplinary designer from Sweden. Refusing to settle for the ordinary.
I'm Pontus Wellgraf
Multidisciplinary Designer from Sweden — Currently pushing boundaries at Fantasy in San Francisco
I dedicate my life to contribute to better. I refuse to settle for the ordinary and I believe that we can do so much more than that.
I'm Passionate To Craft Intuitive Experiences
Adapting visual languages and experiences in masterful ways. All this with the purpose to understand users and keep them in mind when building their experiences.
Mobile Is What's Up
I enjoy building mobile solutions and platform focused experiences. Curious to challenge our current digital landscape and set more human and intuitive interactions as new standards.
I set things in motion
I use animation as a third dimension by which to simplify experiences and guiding through each and every interaction. I’m not adding motion just to spruce things up, but doing it in ways that improve user comprehension while simultaneously deliver delight.
I Believe In The Details
Precision and attention to detail is a top priority in my work. I believe that is what it takes to deliver considered products of top quality.
I Love To Think And Create In Systems
To create something that can grow, expand, evolve. Systems that are powerful, appealing, and well crafted from the very first piece. Strategized decisions, benchmarked components and accessibility proofed etc.
I Believe In An Iterative Process
Investigating multiple solutions to a certain problem or component.
Iterating over and over until my Mac can’t handle the file size anymore
to find the best solution to be implemented.

Medium effort is not an option
Polished, concise, and impactful work makes me excited. To adapt visual languages and experiences into a wide variety of brand voices is what truly creates an identity. I’m a designer that genuinely wants to understand real needs and requirements in order to build optimal, frictionless experiences. It’s not a coincidence that I turned into an experience designer.
We’re in a rushed reality. Things are often thrown together in hope of getting it somewhat right and crucial things are often disregarded because of this. Precision and attention to detail is a top priority in my work which I believe is what it takes.
This paragraph is what distinguishes me from others. I use animation as a third dimension by which to simplify experiences, while also guiding through each and every interaction. I’m not adding motion just to spruce things up, but doing it in ways that improve user comprehension while simultaneously deliver delight. In short, I want to be deliberate and smart about each design choice I make. I want to work with the brightest minds. I’m intrigued to learn more about your approach, goals, and vision. Thanks for reading this far, let’s connect.
