Approach

As a designer, I aim to create products that are:

1

Human

that make life easier or better for people, and help them to connect.

2

Relevant

that solve a real problem or meet an actual need that people have.

3

Pragmatic

that are stripped down to their purest form and purpose – as far as you can go without compromising function.

4

Sustainable

that are made to last and give pleasure – so we don’t feel the need to replace them.

5

Playful

that use form and colours to underscore functionality and add a spark of personality.

6

Detailed

that reflect that the devil is indeed in every detail.
