Vera de Pont has combined her interest in the technical and scientific with her longing for the crafts and experiments. Her multidisciplinary background ranges from Biomedical sciences to Photography and Design, with a focus on the human body and everything surrounding it.
She often uses her experiences with the human body as an example of her design vision; researching character changes in materials due to their fibre orientation or construction and/or preprogramming material structures, as a possible sustainable solution to overproduction and preventing waste material at the start of the production chain.
Besides her degree in Design, she holds a degree in photography and has a curiosity for, and enjoys venturing into, digital landscapes that need no physical manifestation. Roaming with her motorcycle, bicycle and climbing the mountain rock often translates into technical material samples and video/images of the stunning landscapes she encounters.
