Exomembra
2023
In 2023, together with 2 friends, we founded Exomembra. The eventual mission of the startup was to find out comfortability for exoskeletons as an entry in to the medical market. The angle we found for rapidly being able to prototype while aiming for a medical market was to create costume pieces for the cosplay and larp community. The eliminates the hassle of medical regulations and allow for rapid prototyping and iteration.

Building Exomembra taught me how valuable it is to test ambitious ideas in a real community first. By working with cosplay and LARP users, we could iterate quickly, receive direct comfort feedback, and improve both form and wearability before considering more regulated contexts. This project strengthened my confidence in combining creative direction with practical prototyping and user-driven decision making.
