Research.
Every design begins with a spark, some detail or moment that catches the eye and takes our breath away. Or it may start with a heart tugging personal connection that honors an idea or person to commemorate. We dig for ideas in museums and galleries, sifting through the visual lexicon of art history for that magical bit of inspiration that relates to our current moment.
Whether unearthing treasures at Paris’ Marché aux Puces or perusing the fields of antiques at Massachusetts’ Brimfield market, the eyes never rest, constantly consuming visual inspiration. The hunt for the next idea that could be transformed into a design back in the studio never ends. Collections of sketches and idea boards come together leading to maquettes that launch the next piece of timeless hardware.
