Ward Wijnant

b. 1987 Based in Tilburg, Netherlands

Ward Wijnant is a Dutch designer whose work is defined by material experimentation, craftsmanship, and a bold approach to form.

Blurring the boundaries between design and art, his pieces transform traditional techniques into unexpected expressions, where texture, structure, and color take center stage. Each work challenges perceptions of materiality, turning familiar elements into striking, sculptural statements.

Whether through wood, metal, or glass, his process is rooted in curiosity — embracing imperfection and discovery to create objects that feel both dynamic and refined. Through a constant dialogue between tradition and innovation, Ward Wijnant crafts pieces that are expressive, tactile, and distinctly contemporary.

“The pattern of Blend consists of inlay work. Different woodgrains are cut and put back in different places. Inlay work is a very precise and accurate process. In addition to this difficulty level, some works have 500+ different pieces I need to assemble”
