Joost van Bleiswijk, a highly productive Dutch designer, places great emphasis on the process of creation. Born and raised in Delft, he attended the Design Academy of Eindhoven, where he met his future partner, Kiki van Eijk. Throughout his career, Joost has incorporated iconic designs such as grandfather clocks, high-backed chairs, chess sets, and cupboards into contemporary settings. His creative process begins with a genuine fascination for the construction of the object, which is often evident in the final product. Joost’s workshop is where he engages with the experience of designing as a physical act, and his creative process unfolds in an instinctive and gestural manner. Regardless of the scale, the handmade and human touch remains at the core of his practice, reinforcing an intuitive and emotional approach to contemporary design. From his early No Glue No Screw collection to his latest Mechanic and Protopunk series, Joost has always used bold shapes and strong lines to create daring designs that defy usefulness and strive for audacious creativity. He has collaborated with brands such as MOOOI, Bernhardt Design, ICE Carpets, Secondome, and Ahrend. In recent years, he has designed for collectors, companies, and institutions such as The Rijksmuseum, Design Academy Eindhoven, Venice Projects, Zuiderzee Museum, and Noord Brabants Museum. Joost has exhibited his work in private galleries and museums worldwide.
