the lanterns are designed in conjunction with a series of hanging pendant lights, which are meticulously hand pierced and hot dipped in zinc. the chemicals seep through the holes on the surface to create a unique patina, which is then phosphate coated to seal the deal. these pieces come in two sizes and sold nation wide. when lit they cast shadows in 360 degrees.
Packaging for Anthropologie.

product and packaging: these serious steak knives were designed using 6” serrated 440 stainless blade and buffalo horn tips (bi-product of the industry). the box was fabricated to house a set of four knives, constructed of solid kiri wood with a burnt, wire brushed finish, magnet closure and leather pull.
Anthropology has just released my pride and joy. two months of development, this bar cart was inspired from the “mad men” era. made from american black walnut, solid brass fittings and smoked glass, ships flat pack. conceived through sketches, foamcore full scale mockups and roughly modeled prototypes into production specs. and wallah!

a series of shots for a packaging concept i created of a new set of pin stripe, very delicate graduated glasses. early sketches followed by specs and persistent handholding of asia factories delivered the final glassware perfect. a small kiri wood japanese inspired gift box and an origami tissue paper technique was the final outcome.
working on some new lighting. heres a sneak peak
