Markus Voss, Industrial Designer

Products, vehicles and the models that prove them.

Portfolio 2026
Leer, Germany

I'm Markus Voss, an industrial designer and trained automotive mechatronics technician. I connect design and engineering, from the first sketch to a model you can hold.

Looking for a full-time role in industrial design. Available now.

Selected work

Four projects, from autonomous port logistics to a car key shaped in clay.

How I work

Every project ends with something real. Sketches, clay, foam, 3D prints and welded steel: I build what I design, and I know how it is made.

About me.

I focus on series-oriented product development and technical feasibility. A background in vehicle technology and hands-on prototyping helps me connect design and engineering, from first concept to production-ready solutions.
