Ethan Merklein

I recently graduated from Appalachian State University with a BS in Industrial Design and a minor in General Business. I believe industrial design is about creating the best possible human experience, and I hope to explore ideas that improve the lives of others, particularly within the softgoods industry. My current work as a custom furniture fabricator has strengthened my quality standard for fit and finish, and I try to ensure no detail goes untended. Recent university work has been exhibited at ICFF and Designblok.
