Tyler Lanphear

Junior Product Designer
Ty is a product designer driven by a deep belief in creating products and environments that are built to last—designed to be repaired, refined, and passed on over time. He believes meaningful impact can occur at any scale and that thoughtful design has the power to strengthen communities and enhance everyday experiences. His work focuses on making people feel comfortable, capable, and inspired to engage with the world around them.
With a passion for sustainability, emotional durability, and the Radical Act of Repair, Ty values timeless design, responsible material choices, and solutions that age with integrity. An avid outdoors enthusiast with experience in trail running, backpacking, climbing, and fly fishing, he brings a systems‑thinking mindset to his work. Ty thrives in complexity, enjoys organizing chaos, refining details, and guiding ideas across the finish line. At his core, he is motivated by turning challenges into opportunities through thoughtful, user‑centered design.

Favorite MOA Project
