Steve McGugan Industrial Design

Studios, Lyngby, Denmark

If you are looking for an experienced, award winning, personal product designer to design your next new product, then I can help you. I received my education at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena CA. Afterwards I landed my first job in 1982 as in-house designer for Bang & Olufsen in Denmark. During my employment at B&O, I designed the Form 2 headphones, which became a classical icon after being on the market for over 30 years. They are the only headphones in the world that have been on the market for so long.

In 1988 I founded my own design studio and have worked in many different areas of design such as with high-tech industrial products, products for the healthcare industry as well as luxury consumer products for the home. One product I designed for a Danish company has even been used on the ISS (International Space Station). My designs have won several design awards for my clients; 5 Japanese G prizes, 2 IF awards, 4 Red Dot awards, 7 Danish Design awards and the Form 2 headphones I designed for Bang & Olufsen were accepted into the permanent design collection at the MOMA, New York.

My design solutions are often simple & original, with always a focus on the end user.

Design is about keeping things simple. Simple to understand. Simple to use. Simple to manufacture. Simply to enjoy.

My studio provides a high level of service when it comes to understanding and implementing your company’s desires and requirements for a new product or product series.

I present my ideas and designs in a clear and simple manner so that everyone in the team can see and understand what the design is about.
I have a good understanding and respect for the work that engineers do and can contribute in creating innovative mechanical solutions.
I only do what I am best at, and that is product design. To create a finished product, you need experts in other fields as well. Graphic designers, mechanical engineers, model makers, to name a few. I have a large network of specialist that I collaborate with and can help choose the right expert for the right job when presenting a finished design solution.
All collaboration is done directly with me, the designer. No middle contact, no project leader. This helps to ensure that all the necessary information relating to the design project is conveyed to the person who is creating the design solutions for your company.
Using design can help your company reach new markets, gain awareness and improve the world.

Let us work together to create original ideas and inspiring design.
