  • Michael Korn’s Statement

    I am a designer/engineer/entrepreneur

    I invent and deliver simple solutions that solve complex problems.

    I believe the design process enables complex collaboration, and innovation flourishes at uncomfortable interfaces.

    My ambition is to bring together people with ideas and skills in order to create sustainable development.

    Patient Isolation

    Kitchen Fiction

    The Lift
