About Design With Purpose & Kristen Neumeier
Welcome to Design with Purpose, where our name reflects both our firm’s identity and our mission. The inspiration behind Design with Purpose began with my mother's unmet product needs. As a breast cancer survivor, she faced significant challenges finding suitable bras and swimwear.
​
With over 20 years of experience in tailoring, foundations, ready-to-wear, costume, accessories, I founded Design with Purpose to address these challenges and support others with their purposeful designs. Initially focused on improving post-surgical garments, our firm now supports other companies with their purposeful design solutions.
Design with Purpose is more than a solution to a personal need; it embodies the power of impact and inclusivity. Design can heal and empower. We are dedicated to creating products that not only meet specific needs but also enhance the quality of life for those who use them.
Welcome to our journey of purposeful design.
Our Mission
Fusing transformative design with forward-thinking practices, we create solutions to heal, empower, and evolve.
Our Philosophy
We believe that design transforms lives and improves personal health and wellness.
We are committed to a world where sustainable and responsible design can propel environmental change.
