Omvorm is an industrial and digital product design studio based in Antwerp.

We help impact-driven startups and ambitious teams turn ideas into products, platforms, and brands that resonate and add value for people and the planet. With broad experience in industrial and digital design, we don’t separate product, story, and brand. They belong together, and when aligned, they create impact that lasts.

THE MISSION

Rethink resources

Circularity in action
Circularity is more than recycling. Rethink how we design, produce, consume, and relate to products. Be it by designing for disassembly or shifting from ownership to access, we help build ecosystems where waste becomes input and design closes the loop.

Design for everyone

Inclusion as practice
Design has the power and responsibility to shape a society that works for everyone. Equity is made tangible and inclusion goes beyond a checkbox, ensuring that products and services serve all, not just the majority.

Unleash creativity

Creativity as catalyst
Creativity unites, inspires and drives change. Beauty, delight, fun, and play are what makes us human, sparks connection and opens minds to new possibilities. The collaborative creative process generates solutions that are effective but also engaging, surprising, and joyful.

Our structure backs our mission

We have applied many principles of steward ownership within our company. Steward-ownership (re)prioritizes the purpose of the company instead of maximizing short-term profits; and it safeguards the company's independence in the long-run.

We launch projects and build coalitions. We prototype tools, host gatherings, and test alternatives. Our process is iterative, open, and aligned with long-term systems thinking. The best way forward is together. Across sectors, disciplines, and perspectives.

Omvorm means to transform, and that’s exactly what we intend to do.
