Thoughtful Tableware
\r\nI worry about the objects I place in the world: I want them to have worth and be appreciated for as long as possible.

\r\n

I see my future in designing for hotels and restaurants. These vibrant social arenas offer exciting opportunities for a designer. They are ‘real’ settings where work can subtly subvert, provoke thought, be passive or highly interactive, enhancing the social experience.
