  • Next Up: Philip Leung

    The Connected Cocktail Concept Project from Altitude Inc. on Vimeo.

    A self-defined creative realist, Philip Leung has a passion for making things beautiful yet functional and intuitive. After studying Industrial Design at Northumbria University, Philip joined Altitude, eventually leading the Industrial Design Group, where he got to hone his left and right brain sensibilities. Feeling the lure of digital and seeing the opportunity to further expand his passion for design thinking and human-centered design, Philip moved into the field of user interface and user experience design. He now lends his critical thinking and creative eye in leading Altitude’s UX group.

    You could describe Philip as a consumer of all things tech, a tea addict, fiend for his wife’s homemade kimbap, and co-art director for all of his son’s embarrassing photo sessions at home.
