Hey there,
my name is Dean and i‘m a freshly baked product designer from Germany. Naively started with the will to control various materials and transform them into fancy products, over time my interests have turned more and more towards socially relevant topics. In this combination, I work conceptually on projects that question things on a systemic level and shed new light on them. My aim is to develop approaches that are as realistic as possible, which are not just concepts but can actually be implemented. Through dialog and the exchange of ideas, I strive to bring about positive change in society and find sustainable solutions.
