What can I do for you?
Designing and building products. Providing artistic and creative skills for new concepts and products.
I use analogue as well as digital, parametric methods and opportunities for design and production and combine these where needed and usefull.
My experience in set design and sculpture adds the intuitive factor on top of my scientific, analytical skills. With more than 20 year experience and knowledge in creative as well as technical industry i can offer you services that are not commonly found.
I can build rapid, quick and dirty but understandable working prototypes and visualisations. These are used for exploration and for provocing a dialogue. I understand the demands of the producer within the wider context and know the productional and technical implications when new ideas have to be developed.
These skills are also usefull in brainstorms, talks and demonstrations. I give lectures, presentations and workshops focused on design and creativity.
My customers appreciate my creative, original and ingenious contributions, quick and low cost production and my knowledge of many materials and production processes.
