![]() “I
enjoy the process of working to a brief and coming up with innovative
design solutions within the restrictions of the factory. I try to capture
in my designs the receptivity, character and sensitivity of hand-craftsmanship
whilst pushing the boundaries of industrial production processes. The
coexistence of these two cultures within design is something which interests
me.”
