TIM TEVEN

Tim Teven (1993), DUTCH DESIGNER, GRANTED HIS DIPLOMA AT THE EINDHOVEN DESIGN ACADEMY IN 2018. HIS APPROACH TO DESIGN, FOCUSED ON TECHNIQUE AND MATERIALS, COMBINED WITH A PRACTICAL WAY OF WORK, ALLOWS HIM TO PLAY AND TO CREATE EXPERIMENTALLY. IN MANY WORKS, THE PRODUCTION PROCESS IS USED AS A DESIGN TOOL AND AN ESSENTIAL ASPECT IN SHAPING THE FINAL RESULT AND FUNCTION OF THE OBJECT. BY PROCESSING MATERIALS IN AN UNCONVENTIONAL WAY TO RETHINK THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS, HE MANAGES TO FIND SURPRISING TECHNIQUES WHICH CAN THEN BE TRANSLATED INTO A FUNCTIONAL BUT INTERESTING OBJECT. TEVEN WORKS FROM HIS EINDHOVEN-BASED DESIGN STUDIO, FOUNDED IN 2018, WHERE ALL OBJECTS ARE HANDMADE WITH INDUSTRIAL SKILL.
