MARTIN JØRGENSEN

I was born in Denmark in the years of the energy crisis as society was re-defining its identity after the 60s. My dad had just started his carpentry company so I grow up hammering in nails and handling tools.
Prior to my education as an industrial designer I worked for nearly ten years as a skilled metal worker. This background of metal and wood is a great asset to me in building models, prototyping and engineering.
I am skilled in concept development and incorporating engineering and mechanical components into design solutions.
I work with a variety of software I am skilled in model making and have familiarity with most tools and workshop processes.
