Joe Doucet (Mentor)

Joe Doucet, founder of Joe Doucet X Partners, is a designer, entrepreneur, inventor and creative director, and one of the most sought-after creative talents working in America today.

His work deftly hybridises function and visual appeal while conveying layers of meaning and message.

He currently holds numerous patents for his designs and inventions. Doucet’s work has been exhibited globally, including at the London Design Museum and the Biennale International Design in Saint-Etienne. He has received numerous international awards, including a World Technology Award for Design Innovation and multiple Good Design Awards. He was also named the only ever AvantGuardian for Design by Surface magazine. In 2017, Doucet was named the 2018 winner of the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt National Design Award as Product Designer – the highest honour in his field.
