This is a collection of the projects I’ve been working on for the past few years in the diverse fields of Industrial Design, Electronics Prototyping and the production of Interactive Installations. More in-depth information about the products and my design process can be found in my print portfolio. Older work (also including Graphic Design, Web Development and Photography) is still available at a mirror of my old site.
