Danielle Wilson

Hi I'm Danielle Wilson!

I see myself as both an industrial designer and a multidisciplinary creator as my love for creating is not limited to one practice. I find my passion in creating playful and innovative designs and I draw inspiration from the simplicity of childhood, the beauty in the world around me, and my relationships with the people I love in order to create fun, useful, and sophisticated products that aim to bring joy to people.
