About Event

What does it mean to design experiences from a place where your nearest neighbours are arctic seabirds and lava fields? For Gagarín Interactive, based in Iceland, physical isolation has become a creative advantage. In this talk, Lemke Meijer shares how designing on the edge shapes their approach to content, interaction and storytelling.


With three decades in digital media—and a specialisation in interactive exhibitions—the studio creates award-winning work known for its tangibility, clarity and emotional depth.

About Our Speaker

Lemke Meijer is Partner at Gagarin Interactive, an Icelandic experience design studio where she is responsible for concept work in the studio. Here, her work centers around creating tangible, interactive experiences where she encourages visitors to explore new perspectives and uses design qualities such as seduction, immersion, anticipation and others to play with the senses and create contexts for emotional experiences. She works alongside scientists, researchers and educators in a co-creation process to disseminate complicated information into comprehensible and enjoyable narratives.
