My name is Quentin and I'm a product designer from Lausanne, Switzerland, currently completing my masters' in product design at the Royal College of Art in London.
My design practice is rooted in playfulness and empathy, and draws on child- like curiosity to create objects and experiences that are both engaging and supportive. I explore everyday rituals and habits as opportunities for gentle intervention, designing with compassion and a human-centered focus to support well-being by brightening the everyday.
