Bio
Menno Kroezen
I can highly recommend hiring Mats as a designer on your project. He is easy to communicate with, is very efficient in his process and delivers top-notch designs. Best thing about Mats is he masters the whole development cycle: from awesome sketch to get people excited; all the way through to CAD design, 2D drawings and optimising the product for production and assembly. I had the opportunity to work with Mats on many award winning professional and sports products and look forward to opportunities to team up with him in the future. Full five stars for this rockstar designer & problem solver!

I highly recommend Mats for his exceptional work in designing a modular system for our showroom boxes. Mats not only developed a brilliant system but also designed visually stunning boxes that perfectly complemented the showroom environment. Throughout the entire process, Mats ensured clear communication and kept us informed with regular updates. Working with Mats has been an incredibly positive experience, and I confidently endorse his professionalism and expertise.

He was aldo a very pleasant presence in the office.
