About

When I was young, I always liked to make things. Using my hands to create objects or repair things. When I got older I realised that studying wasn’t really my thing. So in my 3th year of secondary school I started illustrative and architectural design. Leaning more towards the architectural side, I chose this direction during the 5th and 6th year. My goal was to go and study product development after graduating secondary school, but as you know, studying wasn’t my thing. So I chose a slightly easier aproach where I still was able to work creative but with less theory. I started an education called Interior and Design. In the second year we had to chose between Furniture design or Construction, an easy choice. After these three very interesting years I wasn’t willing to start working yet, so I started a one year education, called advanced Furniture Design. An amazing year on many levels! Right now I’m settled as independent and working for Costudio, an interior architecture company where I mainly design the furniture and other small projects. Besides this, I still make time to design and make furniture on my own. You’ll find the results on this website.
