Studio Visit Simone Post
Simone Post (1990) is a Dutch textile and product designer living and working in The Netherlands. She graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven with honors in 2015 and has won several international awards.
Post's work delves deep into color, surface, and print, and she has collaborated with companies such as Adidas, Kvadrat, and Vlisco. For Simone the finished product is not necessarily the most interesting aspect of the design process. She has a penchant for the process itself, experimenting to discover the hidden potential of materials and techniques. This always results in surprising outcomes exceeding the boundaries of materials, craftsmen and manufactures. Her focus is on bold and unexpected usages of materials, striving to preserve crafts and promoting sustainability. Her work has been exhibited worldwide from Brasil, China, Italy, US, to Moscow, and has been acquired by multiple museums, including the Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein, the Centraal Museum, Utrecht, and the Cooper Hewitt, New York.
