Stepp Tom

Tom Stepp is a danish designer. He graduated in architecture from The Danish Academy and founded the design company, Tom Stepp, in 1980.

His philosophy : In general I want the products I have designed for myself. I often feel like kind of an inventor occupied with improvements. I feel satisfied when other people appreciate my effort and I get inspired by everyday life. I always imagine that I have only one customer and that is myself. I look at my own personal needs because if I need a particular product I believe that others do, too. Right after getting the idea I start sketching. I am usually able to do the conception in my head so the drawing process is somply a clear visualization which has to be done. Afterwards I resolve the technical aspects about materials, dimensions and so on."
