I don’t post here much any more, and few of you probably know this, but I’m getting a degree in Industrial Design with a concentration in furniture design. Here’s my most recent work

It was a bit of a compromise, considering I’m also building a car on the side right now (more news on that coming soon, I promise). simple form, just two boxes. I think it came out alright though. Haven’t had the chance to take good photos of it yet. Here’s my lamp from last semester:

Here’s my table from last spring:

While I do fabricate all of these myself I don’t consider myself a wood worker, and that’s not what I want for my career path. It’s important for me as a designer to understand the processes that go into building something like this so I can design for production.

This has been a short self promotion post, just kinda updating y’all on what I’m doing.

These are neato. I would like seeing these when you make them.

Thank you! I’ll keep posting them as they come out.

The car will be a pretty big one. Just working on getting everything together for a large release.

These are magnificent, I wanted to go into industrial design when I was younger but dropped it. So now I can live vicariously through you, great work.

Rad! I wish I’d have done furniture/industrial design. Happy to enjoy it through your work.

Have you ever played with the idea of incorporating car parts into furniture? It’s something I’ve always wanted to do.

Nice site by the way, you do excellent work

Wow this is great work. Designing this furniture and building a solar car. You are making me think I should have went into industrial design instead of mechanical engineering.

How is project R.O.S.E.? The car looks great it reminds me of a solar Saab Sonett III. (I’m following the team’s facebook.)

Thanks for following! ROSE is going well. I haven’t been in the shop too much with exams, but the team has been making some great progress. We should start the final assembly process next week.
