  • My Story So Far Clive Goodwin
    Clive Goodwin Merry Meet Farm Falmouth Cornwall TR11 5Dp E [email protected] W clivegoodwin.co M +44(0)7914 015540 My Story so far I was born in Woolwich South London as a product of the sixties and raised in Blackheath a Lovely Green Suburb of South London. From an early age it was evident that I was a typical creative type i.e. a brain wired in a different way to my piers. I left School before the 6th form having obtaining top ‘O’ levels in the creative subjects and embarked on a B-Tec in general vocational design at Southwark College London and a weekend class in Silver Smithing at Goldsmiths College. After leaving College I pursued my studies at Kingston Polytechnic (University now) obtaining a BA Hons in Furniture and Product design. On graduation I began my career at Seymour Powell, perhaps the archetypal product design agency at the time and still hitting the headlines now. Present Fast forward some 26 years and having worked with the best in the industry we (family) up routed and moved to Sunny Cornwall. Falmouth is a melting pot of creativity, there are more startups per capita than any other part of the country. I work with trusted associates on projects and within Falmouth the multi-arts university as an Associate lecturer on the sustainable product design BA(Hons) course. I have accumulating a vast amount of friends and contacts over the years and have a particular understanding of technology, sociocutural and trends within the consumer electronics area. In fact the work I do now is predominately as an innovation design consultant.
