Adriana Monk

As a graduate from Art Center College of Design, Adriana complemented her product design degree with dynamic figure drawing.

For ten years she worked in the automotive world for exclusive marques, including Rolls Royce, Jaguar and Land Rover before following her passion for yachts. Designing for Wally Yachts was the stepping-stone into the nautical world and the inspiration to set up her own consultancy. In 2008 she founded Monk Design offering creative design solutions for transportation disciplines.

It is the broad spectrum of experience that sets Adriana apart and the cross-pollination of disciplines allows her to have a fresh design perspective.

Creativity, clarity and elegance are the main principles she brings to each new project, tackling Design in Motion with energy and enthusiasm.
