Max Male

Max is an award winning designer, maker and doer. Working within constraints, he quickly brings ideas to life, giving them physical form through a range of tools and techniques.

His personal practice centres around play and learning, and for the past year he’s been working on SnapKit, a fun tool to help kids learn innovation skills through creative workshops and invention kits. He loves seeing people get excited about a new idea and helping them to realise it! 

Most creative when…

Max gets his best ideas when he’s got the chance to experiment, play and create with others. When he’s not building or tinkering with something, you can generally find him on a bike ride or in the sea.
