I work with companies, research institutes and cultural organizations that do things so interesting or new, they can be difficult to talk about. By bringing storytelling, design and fabrication together under one roof, I work closely with clients from the initial idea through to the finished piece, creating considered work and compelling narratives that strike the right chord.

The practice

Answered by design.

Design is my form of care. It doesn't demand perfection, only attention to the stories we tell and the things we build. The work sits close to the subject matter, close to the material, and close to the institutions holding meaning for a public.

Selected writing

I write about design as reasoning—how the things we make shape our capacity to understand and act.
