Schematic design for Fishman Devs, a design series of 3 different houses in Los Angeles. I was involved in the early design and research phases phases. My designs were modified by my mentor and was taken to DD presented to the clients.


Furniture design for a coffee shop, Little Ripper, Los Angeles. Furniture schematic design, Drawings, Modeling, prototyping via CNC, and assistance in fabrication, documentation. I was involved in early design phase, prototyping. After prototyping, I had the chance to present them to the clients and understand what they feel about before they provide feedbacks in final selection again. It helped me understand the process of working with people to design a product, instead of designing based on an understanding.


Furniture Design for Slovan, Los Angeles. Initial furniture modeling, drafting, prototyping via lasercut, and assistance in fabrication. I took part initially in modeling the requested chair for fabrication based on the client's provided image without dimensions. Once the chair was able to be fabricated, I was more involved in the project through creating prototypes and assisting in fabrication process.
