Senior🎓
Top SchoolTom Johansen is a seasoned information designer and co-founder of InfoDesignLab in Oslo, with nine years of focused experience turning complex data into clear, impactful narratives that advance the Sustainable Development Goals. He blends practical studio leadership with deep teaching experience as an associate lecturer at Central Saint Martins, equipping scientists, journalists and designers with storytelling tools that bridge cognition and aesthetics. His background spans public service and media — from visualizing national statistics to shaping UX research at Schibsted and design leadership at DIPS — giving him a rare fluency across journalism, government and product design. Tom runs hands-on workshops and is a charismatic public speaker who builds cross-disciplinary communities around data literacy and visualization. Colleagues value his ability to translate dense research into memorable visual narratives that prompt action, not just understanding. He often pairs traditional design craft with participatory facilitation to surface the right story before any visual is made.
