About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making the world a better place

ABOUT ME

We have both studied in Delft at Delft University of Technology. Lisanne was studying Industrial Design and Remco was doing mechanical engineering. We greatly enjoy traveling all over the world, discovering new parts, nature and cultures. We love to be outside, in active sports, hiking or 'working'. When we have the chance, we go out to shoot photo's.

During our studies we have both developed a great interest in sustainability. After her studies Lisanne started her own company in developing sustainable products. In 2013 remco joined her.

PHILOSOPHY

"Wie goed doet, goed ontmoet". This is a dutch saying which means that whoever does good to others, will also receive good from others.

Interests

As mentioned above, we mostly enjoy being outside, preferable doing something active. We enjoy making / fixing things and we hope to build our own house someday (energy neutral of course). Apart from that we try to enjoy nature, either photographing it or hiking through it. In winter we absolutely love to ski.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting Antarctica, walking the inca trail, visiting Salar d'Uyuni (salt plains of Bolivia), Sitting in the door opening of an over-crowded train in srilanka at 100 km/h.

Teach, Learn, Share

By now we know quite a lot about sustainable design and sustainable energy. We can of course tell you some things about that! We've also learned ourselves quite a lot about photography, so by now we've figured out a lot about the settings, the compositions and the hardware.
