JONAS EYDEN-HAINSWORTH / BIGREDJ

ABOUT.

Designer. Photographer. Technical creative.
Trainer. Maker. Serial experimenter.

I've spent more than 25 years making ideas visible, figuring out how things work and finding practical ways to make them better. Alongside that is a second career in training, where clarity matters just as much.

EXPERIENCE / 1992 TO NOW

TWO TRACKS.
SAME BRAIN.

Creative work and practical training have run alongside each other for years. One is about design, images, products and ideas. The other is about machinery, safety and teaching. Both depend on understanding something properly, communicating it clearly and making it work in the real world.

ONE PROJECT / LOTS OF DISCIPLINES

VIBE
DREDD.

One of the projects I'm proudest of. A Judge Dredd film vehicle rebuilt as the VIBE show car, with the project design and supplier sourcing led by me as part of a team build. It went on to win the ICE Industry Gold Award for Best Show Car.

THE WORK BEHIND IT

Vehicle drawings. Body modifications. Automated doors and pods. Interior and audio layout. Graphics. Supplier sourcing. Exhibition thinking. One project pulling together design, engineering and making.
