What is Next?

With the conclusion of my bachelor's degree, it is time to look ahead to the next academic steps I will take in order to continue my development as a designer. The current plan is to go straight into my masters program, which will probably be the Industrial Design program offered by the TU/e. The reason for this choice is that I believe the University offers the best combination of creative expression and technical application, without prioritizing one over the other. It is this balance in my opinion that makes the option the most enticing.

Furthermore, the curriculum offered seems to be quite flexible, which would allow me to develop further into both game design and speculative design, two fields I find the most compelling at the current moment. Looking back at my previous work, especially the project directions of the latter courses, this seems to be where I am naturally heading as a designer, and is a place I believe I can fully realize my vision of providing unique experiences that surpass the physical value of the design.
