“I'm passionate about anything that transforms. The way raw materials can be turned into functional and contemporary objects with ancient crafts intrigues me.”
Product designer Adrianus Kundert uses that passion to create products and spatial designs for clients such as Jongeriuslab, Susan Bijl, Crafts Council, and Envisions. He also started an Instagram initiative, Basketclub, which encourages creatives to weave baskets based on emojis.
In this Domestika course, Adrianus teaches you the art of weaving for basketry. Discover how to create your own tote bag using biaxial and triaxial weaving techniques and bring your design ideas to life.

Adrianus Kundert is a Dutch designer living and working in Berlin. He was creative from a young age, and worked in floristry for over 10 years, experimenting with colors, shapes, and textures to create unique bouquets. He later went on to study interiors but, frustrated by the limitations of the collections he worked with, turned his hand to product design. Adrianus studied at Design Academy in Eindhoven where he discovered a passion for artistic innovation.
Since then, he has worked on product and spatial designs for clients such as Jongeriuslab, Susan Bijl, Crafts Council, and Envisions. More recently, after discovering a paper weaving technique online which is rooted in Danish folklore, Adrianus has focused on the craft of basketry, creating his own Instagram initiative, Basketclub, which encourages creatives to weave baskets based on emojis.

The technique is interesting and deserves better detail of the crossings that must be made to achieve the 3D effect.
