Motivatie
Thanks to my multidisciplinary training in product development my interest and experience has grown in design and life style; such as interiors, furniture, and consumer goods. I'm specialized in furniture design, quick concept modeling and 3D presentations. Working as a full time employed product designer/manager I still am available for attractive design projects or individual furniture design requests.
