Bjorn Shotwell

Bjorn was born in the Philippines and grew up in Toronto, where he discovered and cultivated a passion for creativity and design. Moving to New York and having lived such a nomadic lifestyle since childhood, the idea of home and spaces of shared connection resonates with him. His approach revolves around the storytelling process, whether working on hospitality or a residential project. He aims to balance the scenography of space with the choreography of life, going beyond what things look like, and designing around the lived experience. He earned his degree at the Ontario College of Art and Design and continues to be a student of life, always curious about the world around him.
