Taras is an award winning multidisciplinary designer, technologist and inventor. With over 15 years of experience, Taras has worked with Google, T-Mobile, Spotify. His work has been featured in the Petersen Automotive Museum and Queensland Museum of Modern Art.

Taras has founded two technology companies, a brand agency, a creative maker space and built custom motorcycles before he founded Tarform.

At the heart of the Tarform brand there are three core principles – Beauty, Ecology and Technology. Their vision is to rethink what mobility means and how we move, to make vehicles that last and not built to be discarded. Beauty, sustainability and a meaningful experience is at the heart of every vehicle Tarform creates.
