Joost van der Vecht began his career as a product designer in 1996, collaborating with several renowned European design brands, including Pastoe. Over time, his relationship with the Dutch design house deepened, eventually leading him to play a central role in shaping the collection as Art Director.

During his time at Pastoe, Joost introduced influential international designers and architects such as Naoto Fukasawa, Maarten van Severen, and Vincent van Duysen to the brand. Together with his own work, characterised by clarity and precision, these collaborations helped define a new chapter in Pastoe’s design language.

Guided by intuition and a strong sensitivity to form and material, Joost creates designs that feel functional and timeless. A natural reflection of Pastoe’s enduring philosophy of honest and adaptable design.
