Havelaar Bison e-pickup vid

Havelaar Bison E-Pickup truck is here...

The Bison was originally penned back in 2012. We revisited the design with Havelaar in 2016 and after 1 year of development we have a first prototype built. The design is bold, punctuated with angular cladding and wedge profiles. An evolutionary leap forward from traditional pickups, the Bison delivers a more modern and provocative approach. With short overhangs and tires pushed to the corners, the stance conveys stability and confidence allowing for aggressive approach and departure angles.

Information I can give on the truck.
- 50 & 90 kW batteries will be offered.
- The 90kW should provide 300+ km range
- Base price will start around $60,000 CAD for a more work oriented configuration
- Designed and built in Canada
- First 100 vehicles will be sold to municipalities and fleet with a target of late 2018, further full scale production into 2019

I designed a custom desk for my office. Built by Heritage Forge Creations.

Designed this desk to replace the old tired IKEA one in my office. Was super stoked to have Peter of Heritage Forge Creations built it for me. He does amazing work!

Zero to 60 Designs GTT - My take on a Mustang / GT Supercar

I started sketching the GTT (GT Tribute) about a year ago. A client and friend Kenny Pfitzer saw and it wanted to make it the real deal. He's started his own company called Zero to 60 Designs and thought this would be the perfect ride to make a splash. Here's the main gallery on their site and a few pics below. Hope you enjoy it!

Velometro Update - My maiden voyage

When the Velometro team were in town, I just caught them before they packed up the VEEMO. So I took a cruise around the indoor parking lot. It's a fun ride.

Trip to Toronto

Had a little business trip to Toronto. Can't say what I'm working on yet, but had an awesome time with this team. Plan to have something to show off in the 1st quarter next year.

A2B electric designed by friend and colleague Paul Deutchman. It's been cruising Toronto for almost 10 years now and still turning heads and going strong.
