“Design is about synthesis rather than the reductive processes of science. It is about associations and connections, of understanding relationships. It is more of an intuitive experience than a predictive one.”
- Dr Rodney Hayward

Forms never materialize out of the air, they are extrapolated from the familiar (but ‘unseen’) elements of the known: similes and metaphors act as bridges to link the unknown back to the known.

I start from the inside, where structure and material are married: in the detail one can see the lawful meetings, the articulate relationship that holds the whole together – the material, the structure, and the forces running through it.

I am currently at ANU studying a Bachelor of Design Arts with Honours. Within this degree I have experimented with unusual materials, forms and methods of construction. I am trying to push myself as both a designer and maker.

In my furniture, light, space and form are my primary concerns. With a high attention to detail and craftsmanship, my works are designed to not only function seamlessly, but to have a presence - interacting with the space which flows through and around them.
