Our philosophy

“Business and Design need to find a common objective that lies beyond the present, beyond the temporary – a goal that goes beyond a single transaction or a specific product. Together they need to take responsibility for leading us away from mediocrity and to connect not just at a commercial level, but at a higher level, as well.” – Stefano Marzano, Chief Design Officer Royal Philips Electronics

At Philips Design, we believe that good design is about creating products and solutions that satisfy people's needs, empower them and make them happier. All of this while respecting the environment in which we live. A good example of our philosophy is the Ambient Experience in healthcare (pictured above), a forward-thinking approach to traditional patient care, staff workflows and clinical tools.

Strategic partner in design

We achieve this by being a strategic partner in design for Philips and our selected external clients. By tapping into the vast potential value that design can bring to business, we contribute to the profitable growth of our clients.

Sustainable Design Vision
Our approach to sustainability is based on the premise that, through technology and innovation, we can create propositions that have a minimal environmental impact and are made in a responsible way; all while enhancing people's lives and being profitable to businesses. In-depth research into social and environmental contexts means our solutions are genuinely relevant for specific local lifestyles and customs.
