EXPLORING WHAT DESIGN CAN LOOK LIKE, AND WHAT IT CAN BECOME.

BRANDING, ILLUSTRATION AND FURNITURE DESIGN, BROUGHT TOGETHER BY A CURIOSITY FOR HOW THINGS LOOK, FEEL AND EXIST IN THE WORLD.

A STUDIO FOR THINGS WITH CHARACTER.

I CREATE VISUAL IDENTITIES AND FURNITURE THAT BRING IDEAS TO LIFE IN DIFFERENT WAYS. FROM THE WAY A BRAND LOOKS AND FEELS TO THE SHAPE OF AN OBJECT, I'M INTERESTED IN THE DETAILS THAT GIVE THINGS THEIR OWN CHARACTER.

NOTES FROM THE DESIGNER

I’ve always been drawn to things with character. Things that make you look twice, feel something, or stay with you long after the first encounter. I believe these are the things that last.

Whether it’s a visual identity, an illustration, or a piece of furniture, I’m interested in the idea that art doesn’t have to live in a frame. It can live on the objects we use, the spaces we inhabit, and the everyday things we choose to surround ourselves with.

I like the thought of making the ordinary a little less ordinary. Of giving things a story, a sense of place, and a personality of their own. And if there’s one thing that ties everything I do together, it’s the belief that the things we make should feel like something, not just look like something.
