Footwear Designer
Adidas
Portland, Oregon

As a footwear designer you start every project with the same goal—how can your designs make athletes better, faster, stronger? You have the chance to be a part of athletes’ dreams, wins and accomplishments. You also get to make them look good. Don’t forget that part. When you look good, you feel good. When you feel good, you play your best game. You play to win. Anyone can build a functional shoe. Only a skilled designer can weave consumer insights, functional breakthroughs, and your own vision into a product that athletes are inspired by and aspire to wear. As a Performance Culture footwear designer you will design shoes for athletes to wear off court so they take their game style to their street style. It’s all about fusing sports culture with street culture.

David Derksen has designed a picnic furniture set inspired by garden tools and the specific interactions they suggest. For example, a wind-up light bulb atop a wooden stake can be used in any outdoor green space as temporary lighting, then hung on the garage pegboard when done. Made from rubber, steel, and ash wood, the rest of the set includes a fold-up bench with a handle, a rubber mat for either the bench or a grassy lawn, and a bucket that doubles as a carrying compartment and a stool. We love the industrious feeling that this collection evokes in the service of fun.
