Specialism: Platform 14


I’d like to think I have an entrepreneurial streak, and I’m mainly interested in innovation and inventions.


My methodology is largely empirically based: I normally work with life-size models and multiple prototypes early on in the process to test my design in the scenario it’s intended for.


For me a product’s aesthetic is derived from its function and context: I’m passionate about how products are manufactured, traded and most of all how they are used. I value simple utilitarian products for daily use more than overtly expressive designs.


I’m interested in industry but also in new modes of manufacturing such as collaborative workshops, and small-scale ‘batch-production’. I value both ends of the production scale from low-tech artisanal modes of manufacturing right through to industrial production using computer assistance.
