Winner Dutch Design Award, Young Designer 2019

 

2019 June

We are very proud that Simone is the winner of  the Dutch Design Award in the category Young Designer!

During the Award ceremony Simone was in Brazil for the design Festival Path São Paulo 2019, so her – very proud – mother was the one to receive the prize from the jury.

“Simone Post has a firm vision and position within design. Her portfolio – both commissioned work and self-initiated – is consistent. She enters into interesting collaborations with various industries. As such, she is able to flawlessly deconstruct the (production) systems within a company and then to shape her own project within that context, without losing sight of the brand identity of the client. Post always goes back to basics: the material with which she works is always the starting point for surprising reinterpretations, operations and techniques. Her careful research and her smart, systematic approach are always translated into innovative and beautifully crafted designs with an aesthetic that is characteristic of Simone Post’s work. The jury curiously awaits her next steps.”
