Philosophy
The studio is shaped by how I naturally work rather than a fixed set of rules. It tends to move through phases of exploration, focus, making and rest, allowing ideas to develop slowly and in their own time rather than being pushed into something too quickly.
I don’t tend to work from a complete plan. Instead, I follow what feels interesting or alive, staying close to material and process, and allowing things to unfold as they need to.
1 Creative Rhythm
The work follows a natural rhythm, moving between exploration, periods of deep focus, making and rest. Not everything needs to happen at once, and not everything needs to be resolved immediately. Leaving space often allows something more considered to take shape.
2 Making
Everything is made by hand in small batches in the studio. I work closely with material, scent and form, allowing each piece to develop gradually rather than trying to force a fixed outcome from the beginning.
3 Material
Materials and ingredients are chosen for how they feel and behave in use, as well as their origin and quality. I will always hold a preference for natural materials and simple compositions, with a focus on creating things that feel good to return to over time.
4 Pace
Things are allowed to grow slowly. Often older work and newer ideas sit alongside one another for a while, and that overlap feels like an important part of the process rather than something that needs to be resolved.
5 Responsibility
Care extends beyond the object itself. Materials are sourced thoughtfully, packaging is kept as minimal and recyclable as possible, and for every product sold, a tree is planted through our partnership with Ecologi, supporting global reforestation efforts.
This is something I continue to refine over time, as the studio evolves.
