‘Hello Beautiful’
A collection of 3d printed tactile objects.
about this collection and my creative process
I am a designer maker, design consultant, and product designer with over 25 years of experience within the Ceramic Industry. This ‘hello beautiful’ collection began in 2020 during the lockdown. I started to explore digital design technology to create my forms which are then 3D printed in my studio. Each design begins with a sketch followed by a digitally crafted 3D file. After many years of designing for some of the world’s most recognisable ceramic and homeware brands, I’m enjoying developing my own aesthetic, inspired by my love for mid-century design blended with classic silhouettes and geometry found in nature. Forms are ribbed, faceted, and fluted, and have tactile surface finishes. The biodegradable printing filaments have their own unique qualities and the striations and marks left by the printer make each piece individual. Colours are chosen to reflect current interior trends and create complementary stories that can grow over time.

Pre-show set up!
Here is a little film showing a selection of my designs which were heading to Craft Festival Cheltenham in March 2022. My stand comes in handy both for the in-person shows and in my own studio where I can mock up the displays and plan my next collection.
ENJOY!
