EXTASE22

Bryan Borghans graduated from the Maastricht Academy of Fine Arts and Design in 2022 and did an internship as a design assistant at Ronald van der Kemp. He designs at the intersection of couture and ready-to-wear to create luxury designs with an eye for detail. With a strong drive to keep improving, Bryan combines craftsmanship and awareness to work with integrity and forward-thinking with a key core value of stopping waste. 

Before he studied design, he graduated as an optician, after which he worked in optics for over five years and knows how to use this detailed way of approaching, observing and thinking to give his designs an extra sensorial dimension. He has been working as a freelance creative since 2020 and he wants to share his eagerness, passion and enthusiasm to encourage and inspire people to also find their passion and pursue their dreams. His world changed from 2015, the moment he walked into Tomorrowlands’ Dreamville. In real life, however, he feels we  live in a super-diverse, rapidly changing society where habits, norms and values are under pressure and we are constantly judged. To have an escape from this reality, he tried to capture his feeling at Dreamville. Immerse yourself in his ultimate escape and overwhelming feeling of great happiness: the feeling of EXTASE22.
