My design process (simplified)
Explained with an example
Stage I
There’s almost always a story
This collection explores Love. Not as romance, but as comfort, and connection.
Drawing inspiration from prayer beads. Not for any religious symbolism, but because so many cultures have a version of them. They're often about presence, repetition, and connection.
Stage II
Creating The right form(s)
The foundation of the collection is a bead design which gives the feeling of being held. A metaphorical embrace in form and texture.
The beads have a wrapped form which gestures closeness and care. This collection is a meditation on love as something grounding, something to hold, and to be held by.
