KNEZO DESIGN STUDIO Alex Knezo established Knezo Design Studio which focuses on graphic, product, and interior design projects as well as artistic endeavors. With KDS, design lies not only in the aesthetic appeal of an object, but also in the belief that it is to be uniquely experienced by each individual on a personal level. KDS desires to create distinct concepts which can be adapted to individual needs, offering variety in material, construction technique, costs, and customizability to provide products which satisfy the desires and requirements of each individual client. ALEX KNEZO Alex Knezo holds a Bachelor of Science in Engineering (BSE) in Civil Engineering with Architectural Focus from Princeton University (2009). Upon graduation, he relocated to Tokyo where he found the emphasis on design aesthetic and theory to be stronger than in other areas due to spatial limitations and cultural traditions which celebrate utilitarian and minimalistic elements as well as focus on the future of design. After his experience interning at Shigeru Ban Architects in Tokyo (2007) and Steven Holl Architects in New York City (2008), he joined Noiz Architects in Tokyo. He worked there from 2009 until 2012 when he partnered with Akinori Hamada to create studio_01. In 2013 Knezo established Knezo Design Studio for his personal design work, but will also periodically collaborate with Hamada as studio_01.
