Stefan Apswoude is an awarded creative in Amsterdam. With over 9 years of experience he was lucky enough to turn a boring safety measure into a desired fashion-item, remind drivers to stay sober, designed the 'wurst' soccer-kit in the world and created a functional product for the most windy event of the Netherlands.

When he's not working, he likes to do
side projects, visit art galleries, get inspired by travelling the world or riding waves
