Farewill

For our final project, Antton Peña, Dan Garrett, and I wanted to change the way the world deals with death. With the help of Tom Rogers, we launched www.farewill.com to do just that.

Liminal

For my solo project, I wanted to explore redesigning sleep. This experimental design project imagines how we might capitalize on a wealth of sleep research discoveries from the latter half of the 20th century. Informed by prototypes tested in the studio, the project presents a range of opportunities, from simple solutions like better mattresses and pillows to highly speculative interventions, including direct manipulation of the suprachiasmatic nucleus in the hypothalamus, multi-phasic sleep schedules, and the Liminal capsule, a space hyper-optimized for sleep.
