Production-minded industrial design for forward-thinking brands 

The Bridge Between Pure Concept and Engineering Readiness 

I am a BSc Product Design graduate from Swansea Metropolitan University with over five years of foundational agency experience at Hans Winkler Design directing the full lifecycle of premium consumer products. My professional philosophy revolves around "Production Logic"—the ability to act as both the creative author who originates a design language and the technical developer who carries it deep into the development pipeline. I specialize in bringing initial concept sketches to an advanced, highly mature structural stage, handling the heavy geometric lifting so that the final hand off to internal engineering teams is smooth, intelligent, and highly optimized.

Advanced Geometry & Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration 

My technical foundation is built on managing multi-material complexity across wood, ceramics, stone, glass, and metal frameworks using Rhino 8 as my primary design powerhouse. Rather than handing over unbuildable conceptual drawings, I deliver robust, high-fidelity 3D data that clearly defines external forms, material interfaces, and primary tolerances. My greatest strength lies in communication; I take a project remarkably far on its technical journey, establishing a rock-solid foundation that respects manufacturing principles, and then partner closely with client-side technicians and engineers to refine the final, factory-specific construction details.

The Next Horizon: Expanding Design Territories 

Having recently worked on a product line to secure a prestigious 2025 German Design Award, I have proven that my methodology thrives under rigorous industry scrutiny. While my recent portfolio reflects a deep immersion in high-end interior architecture and premium fixtures, my focus is on continuous evolution. I am actively looking to translate this rigorous multi-material discipline and high-fidelity modeling approach into new, diverse industrial and product design territories. I aim to collaborate with forward-thinking brands across evolving sectors, bringing a production-minded design perspective that minimizes development friction and turns ambitious visions into stunning, manufacturable realities.

Professional Experience

Hans Winkler Design

Lead 3D Designer & Technical Product Developer

Full Time 2022  - 2023

Remote / Part Time 2020  - 2021

Full Time 2018  - 2019

Full-Lifecycle Design Development: 

Directed the technical execution of premium consumer products and interior architecture, bridging the gap between initial concept authorship and highly mature, engineering-ready CAD data.

Multi-Material Engineering: 

Specialized in complex geometric modeling across a wide spectrum of physical materials—including high-end ceramics, solid wood, glass, acoustic felt, and steel—ensuring pure aesthetic intent survived strict Design for Manufacturing (DFM) realities.

Cross-Disciplinary Orchestration: 

Maintained tight collaboration loops with client-side engineers and specialized manufacturing workshops. Advanced complex surface models to a highly mature, pre-production state—resolving core hardware integration and spatial constraints—to ensure a seamless hand-off for final mechanical detailing and tooling adaptation by the engineering team. 

High-Fidelity Visualization: 

Produced photo-realistic, render packages (Rhino) and comprehensive assembly documentation to secure stakeholder buy-in at critical project milestones.

Award-Winning Execution: 

Spearheaded the primary 3D technical development for multiple flagship commercial collections, most notably serving as Concept Author and Lead Designer for the 2025 German Design Award-winning Juna sink series
