Marketing and Communications Lead
Step into the world of Humans since 1982, where curiosity meets precision in the making of the unexpected.
About Humans since 1982:
We are a pioneering studio based in Stockholm, working at the intersection of design, art, and technology. Our kinetic installations, including A million Times and ClockClock, have found audiences around the world. Among our collectors are institutions such as the Vitra Design Museum, companies including OpenAI, as well as global thought leaders across business and culture.
Our work is guided by a simple idea: “Form follows fascination.” Curiosity is where every project begins. While the outcomes often take the form of physical objects, we approach them dramaturgically, arranging anticipation, surprise, and resolution.

Culture at Humans since 1982
At Humans since 1982, we work in a small but distinctive field where design, art, and engineering meet. Our studio creates collectible pieces that require patience, precision, and a genuine fascination for how things work, unfold and surprise over time.
We are a curious and collaborative team. Everyone in the studio is trusted to take ownership of their work, think independently, and contribute ideas beyond their immediate role. At the same time, our projects are collective efforts, built through dialogue, shared curiosity, and a respect for each other’s craft.
The studio still operates with an entrepreneurial spirit. We are flexible and move quickly when ideas take shape, but we also recognise that meaningful work takes care and attention. As we continue our journey, every person in the team helps shape not only the work we create, but the culture of the studio.
