Borut Kerzic

Designer

Barcelona, Spain
I am a surfer, a wind lover, a moutainbiker, a snowboarder, a traveler and above all a designer. To me design is so much more than work... it’s about changing everyday life for the better, making it easier and more enjoyable for everyone and keeping the planet safe for generations to come.
