Hi, my name is Louis. I’m twenty years old and currently a second-year industrial design student at the Munich University of Applied Sciences.

In the past years, I’ve been interning and gathering experiences at technology companies, communication and architecture agencies in Germany, as well as in the US.

From elementary school days onwards, I don’t remember a single day that I was bored.

I was playing around with nearly all the digital and physical tools that were surrounding me at the time, ranging from my grandfather's carpenter tools to my Mum’s PowerBook G4.

While growing up, I was searching for a profession that allowed me to do what I love the most, while generating the greatest benefit for as many people as possible.

In the end, I decided to study industrial design, because I found it to be the perfect tool to turn ideas into reality, right at the intersection between rationality and emotionality, technology and creativity.

I’m fascinated by products and ideas that can help us live a better, more meaningful life and maybe even help us to survive in the future.

I’d like to keep thinking positively about the world and hope to continue to wonder about the things we haven’t yet achieved to do.

In the future, I’d like to be part of an inspiring group of people who create new ideas, tools, products and services that are meant to have a large positive impact.

If possible, I’d like to be close to the most innovative, humane and meaningful technology, while keeping an open room for analogue, simple and tactile experiences.

My wish is to be a good “gestalt-engineer”, who will help to improve and declutter our everyday life bit by bit.

Thanks for viewing my portfolio.
