Geof Ramsay

Geof Ramsay is a multi-disciplinary designer whose work brings together traditional craft, modern manufacturing techniques and materiality through a uniquely modern Maritime lens. This ongoing exploration of modern Maritime product design led to the founding of Harbour, a design studio dedicated to the evolution and dissemination of the modern design of Atlantic Canada in 2014. Under the Harbour name, Geof’s designs re-imagine and re-frame ubiquitous vernacular elements and deeply rooted cultural icons of the Maritime’s distinct cultural character into contemporary design.
