Hello!

I’m Ben Martin. Born and raised in the Bay Area, plant, hamster and beetle parent, and navigating life through delicious food. Got any recs? 👀

After graduating in 2018 from San Jose State with a B.S. in Industrial Design, my career started almost immediately at Whipsaw. Since then I’ve been working on a variety of projects from tiny electronics to large gaming machines. I always bring a fresh perspective to every project and I’m not afraid to go wide in my conceptual explorations.

My design work is inspired by other mediums and cultures locally and abroad. I’m especially moved by local pop culture from every corner of the planet, usually in the form of idiosyncratic movies, products, illustration or video games. This curiosity about the world around me teaches me about what motivates people, and is the perfect means to fill a mental catalog of reference.
