Jose Alburquerque
Product Design

Having spent 2 and a half years at Doshi Levien design studio, I am now looking to
develop my career further by seeking a new position as a designer.

In my previous employment, I have worked intensively on a wide range of projects across a range of design disciplines, such as product, interior, branding and exhibition, for some of the world´s leading companies in the design industry as well as for renowned museums and art galleries.

I enjoy working on concept generation and research, with the aim to create new ideas that
will bring about honest, beautiful and practical products. It´s important to me that I design
sensitively and intellingently according to the client´s vision and their customers, through a careful consideration of market needs with a proactive problem solving approach.

I´m experienced in a wide range of design software, including Rhinoceros, Keyshot, Solid Edge, and Adobe Creative Suite. I also really enjoy and value working by hand with a range of media and materials to visualise ideas as anything from concept models to full size prototypes.
