I had the pleasure of meeting Espen during the Breman Brothers 2005 Beach Bash at FLIBS. We were standing in line for dinner and struck up a conversation. I kept thinking... this guy looks so familiar, not realizing it was Espen until he told me his name.
He's a young guy and very unassuming. It's nice to meet talented people that remain grounded. On that note... I don't think it's not enough to be a good designer. It requires practical experience, an understanding of the client's needs and more importantly, an understanding of the yards capability and the systems that will be integrated. Through all of this, a designer has to remain personable, flexible and helpful to all the entities involved. This is likely one of the reasons Espen has enjoyed success.
