Hi, I'm Kent de Bruin, I’m multi-disciplinary creative (designer, writer, photographer & art director) exploring ideas across design, technology, art, and everyday life.
I work on Futureland. Previously I have worked on projects ranging from personal computing, artificial intelligence, architecture, creative tooling, furniture, government and housing.
In my spare time I spin records, shoot film, play tennis, read and pile books, write drafts, take notes, attempt to surf, run, track things, research odd topics, buy furniture, travel around, and a lot more.
Based in Amsterdam.
I love a personal, email so don't hesitate to say hi.
