Since the establishment in 1994 designer Dirk Wynants succeeded in getting his company Extremis a top position within the international design scene. The fact that he never follows the mainstream, but always brings innovative and progressive design, certainly forms part of this success story. Within his own organization he mainly focuses on designing, branding and art direction. Next to that he leads his own design studio DWDW (Dirk Wynants Design Works).
