// EVEN A BRICK WANTS TO BE SOMETHING Louis Kahn // Five years of professional experience in Set and Motion Design from my time at New Wave Kreativmanufaktur in Berlin, as well as through collaborations with the global Chanel team. As an artistic team lead, I oversaw the design of window displays and private fashion shows across Northern Europe. Before that, I worked with clients including Hermès, Heineken, Lego and Dunlopillo, among others. Alongside my professional experience, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Set and Costume Design at Zuyd University — Institute of Performative Arts in Maastricht (NL) and studied a postgraduate course in Media Spaces at the University of Europe for Applied Sciences in Berlin (DE), where I focused extensively on immersive experiences. As a technical assistant at ExitVR – Exit Live Adventures Berlin, I also gained valuable skills troubleshooting complex technical setups under high-pressure conditions. I am passionate about working with people and projects that have a strong, clear vision — whether large or small. My design process is rooted in conceptual thinking: I pay close attention to how shapes, colours, and materials communicate ideas, ensuring that every creative decision has a clear logic and purpose. I develop my designs digitally using the tools best suited to each project.
