Fabricated by hand

Each design starts as a rough sketch on paper. Periodically I sift through my sketches and execute the most intriguing. From there I work methodically: sizing the parts, figuring the mechanics, perfecting the rotations, developing the prototypes.

When the design is done, I print the final drawings at full scale. Then I engineer and make the parts with a combination of industrial processes and hand working. This includes every piece, including the pillars, metal elements, glass cups, hubs and transitions. There are no “found” parts in my work.
