About

Multilingual accomplished product designer with 5 years+ experience in the furniture, arts, retail and fashion sector, a strong eye for contemporary visual culture and enthusiasm for material and production techniques; able to creatively turn external or self-initiated briefs into physical projects from conception to realisation following tight deadlines. From early on in his bachelor studies in Bolzano and Paris, Tino Seubert started working for art galleries and realised several projects with them. From then on, the German-born product designer's focus has always been on interdisciplinary involvement. He sees conceptualisation, design and production as a broad, cumulative process and finds it important to involve himself in each step to the greatest possible extent. History and contemporary art are an inspiration as much as material research and science. Material is never treated as just a medium of production, but as an integral part of the overall creative concept. However, these serve as starting points and guiding inspirations and do not compromise the aesthetic standard of his work.
