"I've always been drawn to music because of its ability to create an emotional connection and evoke a certain atmosphere. It's a similar approach I take in design – using form, materials, and composition to create an experience that resonates with people.”
With a reductive approach to his craft, Brad Ascalon believes in design that is uncomplicated, rational, and manages to find the perfect balance of form, function, and concept. This approach, coupled with a strong understanding of strategy-driven design opportunities for his clients, Ascalon is widely regarded as one of the leading American design voices of his generation. Ascalon earned a Masters’ degree for Industrial Design from New York’s Pratt Institute in 2005, and that same year was recognized by Wallpaper magazine as one of the "Ten Most Wanted” emerging designers in the world.
