Ward Willems is a designer and storyteller at Studio (for)Ward in Heerlen, crafting unique experiences.

I'm Ward, a passionate designer studying at the Design Academy Eindhoven. Designing is my passion, and I channel it into my venture, Studio (for)Ward, where I focus on innovative and sustainable designs for a better future.

When I'm not designing, you’ll find me enjoying the outdoors by walking or cycling, drawing inspiration from nature. I'm also an avid reader, always seeking new ideas and creativity from books, usually with a good cup of coffee.

My friends and family are essential to me, providing support and joy. I believe in a balanced life, which keeps me motivated and eager to explore new design ideas.

As I move forward, I see myself as a visionary designer, aiming to positively impact the world through my work. My story is about creative exploration, dedication, and harmonious living.
