Susanne Blomster

Susanne has a hand in everything aesthetic, shaping the look, feel, and overall visual expression of the brand.

What’s the best part of your job?

Being part of a team that strives to make everything a little better, never settling. And we laugh a lot.

What’s something you’ve done here at Polestar that you’re immensely proud of?

I’m proud of everything I do here in the spirit of a brand that just keeps pushing boundaries.

What job would you like to have, if you didn’t have this one?

Hmmm, a vet.

If you had a superpower, what would it be?

Tough one, you could debate this forever...if I said “flying” that would be too obvious. But maybe the ability to speak every language in the world and therefore be able to travel anywhere and communicate with everyone I meet, on their terms.

Would you rather have to read aloud every time you read, or sing everything you say?

I spend way too much time considering these things, but seeing as I enjoy singing I’d have to choose that one. I look forward to being the most annoying person in the world.

Design Fest Ghent, a new biennial design festival, showcases ground-breaking designs and sustainable innovations. Like the sweet-smelling, circular creation BreaZea.
