Artur Adson
I'm a classically trained industrial designer and product engineer. I have a passion for creating engaging consumer products, beautifully designed, using advanced materials.
My background in engineering enables me to have a holistic approach to product design, and I enjoy being involved in every step in the development process.
Graduate of the Royal Institute of Technology, ranked as one of the world’s top 100 universities but my enthusiasm for design and technology along with new tools and methods have taken me far beyond my formal education.
