Words by Bernardine Walrecht - Arian Brekveld graduated from the Eindhoven Design Academy in 1995. His objects can without exception be called stylish, without resorting to lavish design. The clear, crisp lines create an almost sober design with a timeless value, which is in part defined by the thorough research and a tasteful and intelligent use of color and material.

Brekveld has the capacity to start a conversation and a process with clients and manufacturers. His extraordinary empathic ability allows him to explore the circumstances and possibilities of a company, brand or manufacturer. He learns to speak their language and approaches his target in a friendly yet decided manner, convincing other people to explore the boundaries of the production process together. This characterizes Brekveld’s specialty: a combination of an idea and an innovative, competent execution that leads to the attractive, seemingly simple and functional products with added value.
