MA work

Mechanical Objects

Materiality and precision are at the core of my design practice; I am interested in how things are composed, so my work is distinguished by clean lines and refined construction. I am carving the link between my passion for interior design / furniture and my fashion accessories background, which brings together industrial, slightly unexpected elements and the elegance and warmth of traditional leatherwork.
