About

Take Two Studio is a multidisciplinary design studio founded by Taylor Wickman, rooted in strategic thinking, product innovation, and creative craft. With a strong foundation in industrial design and product development, I bring together research, user experience, market insight, and design execution to help ideas become real, meaningful solutions.

I thrive in the space where strategy meets artistry, and I lean into that in every project.

Take Two Studio also offers a creative platform for my own work - a place where I design and develop original products that reflect my love for materials, detail, and considered process. While industrial design informs much of my practice, my creative terrain is broad: I engage not only with business-driven projects but also with personal, craft-based explorations.

I believe in design that is intentional, refined, and honest. My approach combines rigorous thinking with hands-on experimentation, producing work that is both strategically grounded and artistically expressive. Every project is informed by research, shaped by user insights, and elevated through design.

In my personal creative practice (including ceramics), I explore materials, form, and texture in a slower, more mindful way. These objects, born from a smaller-scale, deliberate process, reflect the same commitment to craft and meaning that defines my consulting work.

With Take Two Studio, my mission is twofold: to partner with others in building products and brands that resonate, and to create original work that inspires connection, calm, and creativity. Whether you’re a founder seeking direction or a design enthusiast drawn to objects that feel alive, I aim to merge strategy, design, and artistry in everything I do.
