Seasons Mirror
May 2026

A meditation on the passage of time.

The mirror sits within rotating ellipses, mimicking the movement of clock hands. The design presents a knot-like enclosure, a soft upholstered frame holding the present moment.

Soft Potential
May 2025

Soft Potential, my thesis body of work at RISD, highlights the potential of furniture and objects to encourage idiosyncratic and open usage through flexible, modular systems. This reflects my aim of designing non-prescriptive work, exercising a soft approach to furniture design.

Softness is a guiding principle. Color, curved lines, textiles, and wood are combined to invite tactile interaction.

Softness is a rejection of rigidity in support of human tenderness and agency.
