Scott van Tuil is a Tasmanian designer-maker and the founder of VAN TUIL Design Studio. Scott graduated from the University of Tasmania with a Bachelor of Environmental Design and was named the 2015 DIA Vic-Tas Graduate of the Year for Furniture Design. He works with a range of materials to create objects that are beautiful in both form and design.

"I like the phrase – that if something is too beautiful or too good to throw out, then you've done a good job in terms of sustainability. That object or thing, whatever it is, is going to go on and serve its purpose for a much longer time."
