Sjang Niederwieser (1988) designer & maker with a passion for materials and techniques and combining them to create objects and products. A fusion of design, art, craftsmanship and technology.
I love to create with my hands but also let machines do the work for me. Finding the right balance between machinery, craftsmanship, and using only the best materials results in unique, functional and beautiful objects d`art.
