Jo Meesters

"Studio Jo Meesters creates concepts and products based on the keywords of matter and craftsmanship. The ongoing search for innovation in materials and techniques is the major drive of the design studio, which is considered a laboratory for product concepts. A laboratory focused on the research of new ways of material handling and the exploration of the boundaries of the intersection of craftsmanship and mass production techniques". With sustainability at its core, Jo Meesters aim to embed an emotional value to his projects & products emphasizing the bond between object and user.
