Paper.Scissors.(Wood).Stone


So the time has come to start having a little think about my next project... after seeing these lovely, seemingly delicate paper-wood chairs by Drill Design I feel really inspired to try and incorporate wood into my practice, experimenting with the different ways colour could be combined with the raw, natural qualities of wood.

Lift Off!

I have been developing my website for a while now and although it still needs some tweaking and I still have plenty more to add I couldn't wait to do a quick post on it's development so far. I will be making a few adjustments and adding more work over the next few weeks, but you can take a peek now by clicking here!

New Designers 2010


New Designers in not far away and I am preparing my portfolio and sending out press packs to companies I love in hope that they will come and have a look at my work. I am really excited to have been chosen to represent my university as there was some really strong and innovative work created by my fellow design graduates. 22 of us will be representing Nottingham Trent Textile Design. We are on stand T3 on week on (1-4 July) so come say hi if you do visit. You can buy tickets at the New Designers website, where you can also catch my work in the Press Area.

And now the end is near...


After months of early mornings, tiring days and late nights, the day of our exhibition opening is finally here. The sky is blue and the sun is peeping out as the summer creeps ever closer and my university days are almost over. Above, a sneak preview of my final statements being shown as part of Nottingham Trent University's final year degree shows.
