Örn er byggingaverkfræðingur með sérhæfingu í sjálfbærni bygginga og þá sérstaklega gagnvart dagsbirtuhönnun. Örn hefur einnig tileinkað sér umsjón og ráðgjöf varðandi upplýsingalíkön mannvirkja (BIM).
Örn stundaði nám við Háskóla Íslands og Konunglega Tækniháskólann í Stokkhólmi (KTH) þaðan sem hann útskrifaðist með mastersgráðu í byggingarverkfræði (e. M.Sc. Architectural Engineering).
Þegar Örn er ekki í vinnunni að greina dagsbirtu eða annað líkt tileinkar hann tímanum sínum ljósmyndun eða einhverskonar útivist en það eru hans helstu áhugamál.

Named in 2012 as one of National Geographic’s “25 Wonders of the World,“ Blue Lagoon has evolved from its infancy as a reservoir of geothermal runoff into a world of geothermal wonder. The unique properties of its waters provide not only an enchanting lagoon experience, but also the patented, active ingredients in Blue Lagoon skin care: silica, algae, and minerals. Blue Lagoon is located in a sprawling, 800 year old lava field in the heart of the Reykjanes Peninsula – a UNESCO Geopark. Lighting was sensibly integrated into the architectural design of the building and the stunning surrounding nature.
