Nyko de Peyer

Nyko de Peyer is an industrial design consultant at Gravity Sketch, and works across the footwear, automotive and product design industries. As a former automotive designer working at Local Motors on projects such as the Rally Fighter, DARPA XC2V, 3D Printed Strati and the Dominos Delivery Expert, he has a passion for solving complex design problems related to almost anything that moves.

As an early adopter, he loves to try and apply the latest technological advances to solving these problems, which eventually led him to picking up VR and learning Gravity Sketch.

In addition to working as a designer, Nyko taught robotics, design and VR at a high school innovation center to inspire the next generation of problem solvers. As a teacher he fell into the role of coaching a FIRST Robotics team, who ended up going to the world championships in their first year.
