WHO IS TIAN PAKKO?

Growing up a Chinese-American adoptee in the metro-Detroit area, and the middle child in a family of engineers- I found myself perpetually investigating the balance between beauty, and utility (or rather, “beautility” as I refer to it). Today, I am on the lookout for innovative interactions and objects and experiences that make people feel things.

 

First and foremost- I am driven by my futurist mindset, a passion for sustainability, and an innate ability to adapt. I believe that great design not only captivates visually but also makes everyday interactions more delightful and efficient and I strive to create products with the intention of encouraging connection and conversation.
