Background

About Toon Welling

Trained as a psychologist and a product designer, I have always been passionate about making things that enable an almost seamless interaction with users, creating a sense of possibility and enhancing their creativity. I enjoy inventing things, whether that means helping families develop meaningful rituals, designing furniture for adults or children, or building electronic musical instruments for people of any age. Apart from my development and production work at Dato, I am also available for other projects. As I learned a great deal during the making of our first “mass-produced” product — from making cases, designing silicone pads, up to finding the perfect screw to put the whole thing together — and I would love to share these skills with anyone who needs them. Also, by working at Dato and our workshop at Vechtclub XL, I have collected a great team of people around me, and together we can do anything you might need to create a product, from graphic design to animation, from electronic circuit design to software, and from interaction design to concept development. Bring us any project you can dream up with, and we'll make it a reality!
