Key to my values and work ethic, I believe that our environmental crisis is made too complex and inacessible.

Clear, evidential and engaging approaches through design and technological advances are a solution to bring forward narratives to act.

About me 





 My name is Nathan Pottier and I'm a recent graduate from Aalto University in Finland in the multi-disciplinary masters program Creative Sustainability (merging Design, Business and Engineering) with a minor in Information Design.

As an individual that is a product of our globalised world through lived experiences, I understand and appreciate multi-cultural understanding on seemingly global issues.
Embracing complexity is at the heart of my work and adressing socio-environmental causes drives me. Through the view point of art, design, business and engineering, I play through a collaborative and hands-on approach, with the practices of design, tangiblity and data to create meaningful stories and provide information on complex issues to  initiate or accelerate sustainable change.
