JEFF TEBEAU

Principal Industrial Designer

Immersed in creative outlets as a young child, Jeff was encouraged to explore the physical world by family and educators. Seemingly born with a pencil in his hand, a fascination with machines, along with an intuitive understanding of “how things worked”, there was never a question that a “creative career” was his path from the beginning. 

Born and raised in Southern California, Jeff pursued a degree in Industrial Design, with a focus on fabrication and material science from Savannah College of Design. This offered him opportunities to partake in many co-operative courses and intern for revered companies like Pentair Water, Coca-Cola, and Mattel. His broad-strokes understanding of Intuitive Usage, Aesthetics, and Fabrication methods has resulted in ground-breaking patents, as well as several international design awards. 

“A jack of all trades is a master of none...” 

Over the last decade and a half, Jeff has found commercial success in a diverse range of industries. Starting his post-graduate career with, then, Fisker Automotive, developing creative interior lighting strategies and innovative ways to disrupt conventional automotive architecture. 

In the years since, Jeff has developed products ranging from in fashion, to point-of-purchase strategies, to outdoor sporting, to luxury cosmetics.
