About Studio3/Michael Shields

I have worked as an industrial designer for over 40 years and have broad experience creating healthcare furniture & equipment as well as seating, casegoods, tables, and panel systems for office environments.

After leading in house design and development teams for several manufacturers, I launched my independent design consultancy and have been successfully providing clients with innovative, award winning designs since 2001.

With six Best of Neocon awards and over two-dozen patents, I continually strive to provide my clients with “out of the box” concepts.

Believing that form truly does follow function, I prefer to improve the way a product works or is manufactured rather than providing “aesthetic only” solutions.
