LIGHTING

Light is a very flexible material “ Ingo Maurer

I had the privilege and honor working alongside with Ingo Maurer for over two decades. We explored the boundless possibilities of creativity to build a formal visual language that has impacted and influenced the lighting industry.

The vision was to design and develop each object using innovative technologies from low to high voltage halogens, LEDs and OLEDs to illuminate interior public and private spaces.

Furthermore, the volume of work was an exploration of materials, application of cutting edge technologies, while examining unique forms. 

Ingo Maurer and Team have consistently been recognised and acknowledged by international design museums and design industry experts for our exemplary work in the field of lighting.

NIKE

FOOTWEAR

High Performance Shoes

The thrill of victory, teamwork, and competitive spirit in sports are all hallmarks and reasons why I chose to join and work for NIKE. Tinker Hatfield, NIKE’s creative director, was my mentor as I started designing high performance sports footwear for several categories. 

The brand since then has transformed to become a global influence in sports, active lifestyle, and urban street fashion.

The implementation of dynamic fit technology, innovative lightweight materials, sustainable production methods and new footbed technology were integral components to achieve maximum performance and function. 

Moreover, the blend of in-depth research, consumer focus groups, smart materials, and marketing endorsements are a testament to NIKE’s commitment for innovation.

S.L.E.D. 7

PRODUCT

Skier Location Emergency Device

“Victim down, scanning for coordinates. Initiating emergency procedures, activate SLED 7… over” 

The problem is real, injuries often occur on the mountain and a lack of response time for emergency assistance can have fatal consequences. Therefore, speed is paramount for emergency personnel to find the injured victim under any weather conditions.

Surrounded in a cold environment, the injured victim is in shock and the body quickly succumbs into hypothermia. The individual can send out a distress SOS signal from a transponder embedded in the ski pass when activated. A ski patrol personnel receives the distress signal and immediately locates the coordinates to facilitate an emergency response. Consequently, the accelerated response time is crucial to rapidly administer first aid and to extract the victim out of the mountain.

Transportation

VEHICLES

Embarking on a journey through the rugged terrains of innovation, each vehicle combines engineering aspects designed to anticipate the future of mobility in every domain.

From the sleek silhouettes of airborne crafts that slice through the sky, to robust all-terrain vehicles engineered for land exploration, they project the future of next-generation transportation

RECOMMENDATIONS

“Sometimes in your career you are lucky enough to meet people who combine two of my favourite attributes – passion and talent. Isagani is one of those people and working with him has been a truly great pleasure.

The first project we worked on combined our Light Tile technology, the design ethos of Ingo, and the talent and energy of Isagani. When it was launched in Milan at Ingo’s private Krizia show, for the first time in my life I became emotional about a lighting design. It was stunningly beautiful. Now, whenever I get the chance, I indulge myself with an hour at Ingo Maurer in Munich, an opportunity to smile and enjoy the company of the wonderful Mr Isagani Vengco.”

“Not only is Isagani an absolute pleasure to work with he is a true professional. So passionate for his work and art, for the wonderful brand he serves and the vision he realizes – I thoroughly enjoyed working with Isagani on a wonderful collaboration with Mickey and Ingo Maurer. 

Isagani drove the project from start to finish and managed the entire process, seamlessly, complete with a fantastic launch during the Milan Furniture Fair April 2016 as well as Somerset House, April 2016.”

“Isagani has been a great role model for creating new lighting concept and its design with leading-edge technology like flexible OLED. He is very knowledgeable in flexible OLED technology and is also very capable in coming up with a concrete design direction which highly reflects Ingo’s concept.

Since he has very deep understanging of the technology and also its process backgrounds, his design proposal is much exact and persuadable to his business partners. Of course, I have also enjoyed working with his enthusiastic and conceptual personality for WhisperWind project, world’s first flexible-OLED object for Light+Building 2014.”

“I got to know and work with Mr Vengco early in his career at Nike in Beaverton, Oregon. As a fellow designer I was impressed by his natural ability to ideate beyond the confines of “what is,” his refined sketching and presentation skills, and especially his sensitivity in being able to forge a genuine connection with a wide, diverse variety of consumer types.

Mr. Vengco reliably navigated multiple project calendars to such a high degree that I remember him being able to design and submit extra proposals for Graphic and Product ID projects that were an addition to his assigned work load. He skillfully addressed each design brief and moreover was on time with each product’s market launch.

Mr. Vengco possesses a world-class skill set, that is clearly recognizable in his work. But more importantly, Isagani is absolutely driven by an authentic passion for both Design and Life…and this is why I believe he would prove to be a brilliant contributor to any design team.”
