As an observant and socially engaged designer, I am fascinated by human interaction and behaviour. Through contemporary design, physical modelling and material exploration, I explore how connections are formed, experienced and shaped through space.

‘Constructed Connections’

Through iterative development, my research and ideas were translated into a physical model exploring how furniture can influence social interaction at times of mindfulness, gathering of just being ‘present’ in the moment – all of which are things I value greatly. Initial observations informed experiments and prototypes which were refined through making and testing.

The final outcome became a functional yet conceptual piece reflecting presence, togetherness and cooperation through playful design.

Other design ideas and mini experimental models to help inform ideas for fine, refined collection.
