Hi, I'm Leon Puschmann, a product designer based in Cologne, Germany. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Product Design from Aachen University of Applied Sciences and have hands-on experience taking concepts from idea to manufacturable products, especially in furniture and household goods. At Songmics Home I led design teams, coordinated with R&D and Marketing, and drove the development of market-ready concepts through prototyping and testing. I enjoy UX/UI design, 3D modeling, and prototyping, and I work with cross-functional teams to create user-centered, affordable products. My toolkit includes Figma, Rhino3D, KeyShot, and Adobe Creative Cloud, and I frequently apply AI-assisted workflows to accelerate design. In my spare time I love cooking, surfing, camping and vanlife, and weight training.
