About Steven

Hello everyone!

✏️Industrial/product designer since 2018, I work in a fully equipped workshop in Paris (Parc de la Villette) where I develop many varied projects for innovative companies. I am bilingual French/English and a graduate of a Master's degree from the Beaux-Arts de Rennes.

📐I work with a dedicated design office, for industrial design from A to Z at a lower cost, in France or China.

♻️With a passion for materials, I live for experimental and methodical design with attention to the circularity of the project.

✨I will pay particular attention to your needs and ideas in order to develop a functional, contemporary and sustainable product.

My approach:

•Reflection phase:
-Client brief
-Cultural and technical research
-Benchmarking and trend research

•Creative phase:
-Brainstorming
-Sketches
-Scenarios
-3D modeling
-Models and experiments
-User testing and interviews

•Design and presentation phase:
-Animations
-Detailed 3D renderings
-Technical plans
-Prototyping in my workshop (3D printing, laser cutting...)
-follow-up for the production phase

• Skills in: Product Design / Industrial Design / Furniture Design / 3D / 2D and 3D Animations / Photo and video, rapid prototyping...
• Software proficiency: Rhinoceros / Keyshot / VRay / Grasshopper / Photoshop / Illustrator / InDesign / Premiere Pro…
