WORDS FROM OUR CLIENTS

PROFOTO - EMIL STENBACKA DESIGN ENGINEER MECHANICS
“No Picnic has over the years delivered “to the point” design in several of our projects. Fast, creative, and thought work. I highly appreciate the easy communication and the minimalistic use of fancy design lingo.”

Ericsson - Lennart Schön, Concept Development Officer
“I have been working with No Picnic since the mid-90s, initially focusing on mobile phones for Ericsson. Although I left Ericsson in 2001, No Picnic continued its collaboration with Sony Ericsson for several years. Around 2005, we resumed our cooperation, starting with a concept called AIR. This project was highly successful and resulted in winning the "Stora Designpriset." The AIR concept has since evolved into its own product line. Later, we jointly developed a concept for Ericsson San Jose focused on routers. This concept eventually expanded into a small cloud solution utilized in our 5G testbeds. Working with No Picnic has been smooth and efficient over the years. I have experience of several industrial design firms, which allows me to make a well-informed comparison.”

SONY - Eiji Shintani, Chief art director
“I am proud to share that our collaboration with No Picnic has flourished creatively for over 10 years, beginning with Sony Ericsson. Initially focused on cell phones, our partnership has expanded to include Walkman, VAIO, audio equipment, and even UX proposals. Often, our collaboration begins at the initial concept formation stage, but many projects have progressed to final product prototypes. No Picnic consistently stimulates our creativity with fresh ideas and innovative designs. This partnership is truly irreplaceable, continually pushing the boundaries of what we can achieve together.”

EVOKO and Smart Media Solutions AB - Dan Berglund, Former CEO
“I came in to contact with No Picnic at the end of the 90s as a newly appointed CEO, when they were relatively new to the industry. The partnership was truly a stroke of luck as we went from being a market-leading national company to a market leader in Europe. No Picnic's humble but skilled approach to tackling tasks meant that together we were able to build an extremely strong brand in a short time in an industry that had been very conservative and generic. Some products that were designed more than 15 years ago still meet a very high standard - completely unique.
Our collaboration of more than 15 years with No Picnic was a great fortune for both me and the company - I have them to thank for the fact that today, I can enjoy my retirement.”
