BEEHAVEN PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT
The beehaven playground equipment offers children a vibrant and imaginative journey into the world inside a beehive. The natural geometry formed within nature is reflected through a simple yet bold configuration. Utilizing existing platform design, the rotor-moulded ‘cells’ can be placed neatly to either create or replace existing aged equipment
PAPER PLANE ACADEMYCREATIVE DESIGN INSTALLATION
Inspired by the idea of showcasing design in a fun, hands-on way, the Paper Plane Academy emphasizes the ability of design being derived from something as humble as a piece of paper. Working through JonesChijoff design consultancy, the experience of taking an idea from the drawing board through to execution was a rare and enjoyable experience.

Design should be something to enjoy. This tongue-in-cheek concept of salt and pepper shakers transcribes the traditional table setting of hustle and bustle with everyone trying to tell their stories from the day. Through CNC milling and slip-casting, the process embodies both the past and present manufacturing processes.

FREEFAB ARCHITECHURE/INDUSTRIAL DESIGN
The amalgamation of Industrial Designers and Architects to create a tower focused around key programs. The fusion of knowledge, experience and concepts created a sculptural façade through the adaptation of synthetic stone manufacture and ultrasonic consolidation.

Moving from the rural region in 2007, I began studying at RMIT University Melbourne. A trend soon emerged with the desire to design products from the cradle to the grave; with the input throughout the entire process.

I have a curiosity for new technologies and materials, and have a hands-on approach to design. Deferring my final year project for a semester allowed for hands-on work experience at JonesChijoff design consultancy through The Paper Plane Academy; which defined a design formula that I have adopted and continue to do so.
