About the Studio

Clark Bardsley Design is an award winning, cross-disciplinary design studio. With curiosity as our common starting point we strive to build unique character in to each project, with respect and deference to the materials and processes that bring the idea to life.

Clark founded the studio in Auckland New Zealand in 2013. He has 17 years of experience in industrial and interior design for brands, manufacturers and service providers across the world. The studio is able to deliver a design service from concept to finished product or space.

About Clark

Clark is a New Zealand born designer educated at Victoria University in Wellington. His first job as a designer for Auckland based brass-ware brand Methven was a classic introduction to real world industrial design, particularly the opportunities and constraints of mass market and mass production. This experience put him in good stead for a new role in London as senior designer for eminent British cross-disciplinary studio PearsonLloyd. Eventually returning to New Zealand in 2013, Clark is the director of CBD, and external Head of Design for Work Club Global

Clark is a Professional Member of the Designers Institute of New Zealand.
