Who is Benal?



My name is Benal, but my friends call me Benny. 

Currently I work at Tellart in Amsterdam, crafting experiences at the intersection of people, nature, and technology at scales ranging from handheld objects to building-scale World Expos.

I use my broad range of skills across industrial, experience, and speculative design to experiment, design, and tell stories that change the world.

If you’re curious about my work or you want to help me strike things off my bucket list (see below), please reach out to me via Linkedin or email.
