DESIGN EXPERIENCE AND PROJECTS


2010 Centuria Seating Sculpture Competition: WINNER A competition set by Teesside University to design new and interesting seating for the then new Centuria Building on the Teesside Campus. The design has an organic shape and multiple levels to create a visually striking piece of sculpture. The feature was made in white granite that should provide it with suitable weather resilience. Professional Skills and Strategic Product Development Team Project Seeing: Heavily user based team project using the IDEO design approach. Developed a tool to assist in the process of hanging a door. The solution was a strong and durable stainless steel tool that would survive daily use on a building site or in a day to day DIY environment. It had features to aid the user in everything from the initial marking out process, through to making sure the door fits within its frame comfortably.

I have experience in using Roland millers and engravers, as well as a basic understanding of Thermwood 5-Axis machining.

These include, Photoshop, InDesign, DreamWeaver, CoralDraw,

AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Google SketchUp and 3D Studio MAX, with additional understanding of all standard MicroSoft Office applications. My hobbies include, Running and Cycling, playing Snooker, and playing and making/modifying guitars. I have been teaching myself how to play guitar for a little over two years.
