Our metal-spun zinc lampshades - the zinc discs are spun for us by local manufacturers. The patina is created with a combination of citric acid and copper sulfate, to bring out beautiful charcoal tones. The cap is made from used coffee grounds and resin, and turned on the lathe.

Architect Karolina Brock from LeLa Architects commissioned me to build a casual styled, semi enclosed kitchen for a pool pavilion in Omaha. The kitchen was constructed with band-sawn Rimu with black mesh and solid stone top by Touchstone Matakana. Also constructed two basin and built-in seats for the his and hers shower areas.
I was commissioned to help fit out Green With Envy’s new store on Matakana Rd. They needed a new front door, a table for their courtyard, some shelving for display, and a main counter for the store. The front doors were made out of solid steel frames infilled with Hemlock Cedar. I finished the table with a live edge and powder coated legs designed especially for their courtyard. I installed two SYML shelving units for display. The main counter was constructed with the same materials as the front doors in hemlock and steel.
I was contacted by an existing client to design and manufacture a large Coffee Table for their new home in Matakana. The brief was to create a design that featured beautiful NZ Blackwood Timber and to have a light steel 10mm frame.
I was approached by local designer Rachel O’Malley to provide her Auckland client with a bespoke set of solid brass hex-bar Bathroom ware for their renovation.
After the fire closed down the Sawmill Brewery 2019-2020, we were approached to come up with three designs of stools to replace those damaged by smoke.
The brief was to create a beautiful Japanese bath tub using no metal fastening that would could expand and contract without leaking.
