CENSES DESIGN STUDIO
.overview
We are a global footwear design and development office that specializes in athletic, outdoor, and lifestyle products. Censes Design Studio is a combination of two experiences - being human (census) and relating back to our 5 core sources of emotion (senses). There is so much value that can be brought to the product space with a more humanized and emotional product creation process.

.what brands say
"David was excellent to work with on the tech pack for our footwear brand. He was extremely responsive and easy to get a hold of throughout the process, always available to jump on a call or answer questions quickly. He proactively suggested improvements to the design and construction that we wouldn't have thought of ourselves, drawing on his real industry experience. Highly recommend for anyone developing a footwear product, especially first-time founders. "
- CEO, NYC Based Startup
"We would hire David again in a heartbeat. Working with someone who owned their process completely, brought genuine creative insight, and never stopped pushing until we hit our milestone goals is rare. David is an exceptionally talented designer and an even better human. For anyone looking for professional expertise in the physical product space, especially footwear, he's the one!"
