Tim graduated with a 1st Class Honours Degree in transportation design at Northumbria University. Initially gaining experience at Pininfarina, then in the luxury yacht sector with Sealine. His real passion and talent is surface form and development. This is reflected in the first new product developed for the British Design Shop called ‘Form’. As a keen drummer, he’s happiest tapping the desk along to the music in the studio. However, when not busy creating beautiful objects, Tim can be found out cycling and, as is the Irish way, stopping off for the odd pint of the 'black stuff' on the way home.
