Process
Digital Drafting & Spatial Engineering
Every piece begins with a sketch. From there, digital drafting transforms those initial lines into a dimensional design within drafting software. Shapes are refined, separated, and layered while working through how the individual pieces will interact to create depth, movement, and shadow.
Intuitive Color & Palette Development
Color is much more intuitive. A palette might start with something that caught my attention, an unexpected color combination, or even a dream. Colors are mixed and tested, then allowed to simmer in the studio. I adjust, repaint, and keep working with them until the palette feels right.
Fabrication & Hand Finishing
Digital fabrication brings the design into the physical world, but much of the process is done by hand. Individual pieces are cut, shaped, sanded, prepared, painted, finished, and assembled. Technology, handwork, and a lot of problem-solving all play a part.
Throughout this process, I am consciously thinking about creating joy.
That intention guides the color, movement, dimension, and ultimately how I hope the finished work feels in a space.
