Product design
Outgoing is an art subscription I run from my studio. Each edition of Outgoing contains an assortment of prints, self-published books of drawings and writing, stickers, magnets, and other design-forward items. Here are a few of my favorite products from the first year:
I grew up 30 minutes from Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater, so I was thrilled to develop products for their museum shop. These pieces sentimentally and humorously capture the essence of Fallingwater, through everyday apparel and accessories.
Designing apparel is fun because you get to see other people (literally) in your work. These monochromatic pieces, adapted from my fine art practice, can be a look’s focal point, add a complimentary element, or joyfully clash withe other patterns.
These sculptures use contemporary materials to distill large scale works into accessible, small batch art objects.
Any object can have a creative twist applied to it, and still look cool - even clocks.
Packaging and Print
I interviewed Brookyln based coffee roaster Nick Oddo and asked where his mind is at when he’s roasting—is it really intense or automatic at this point? His reply inspired our collaboration’s branding.
“When I'm roasting the coffee I think about balance. I think about catching an egg. That’s what roasting coffee is like for me.”
I created iconic images to represent the text for issues 25-37 of True Story magazine.
