Zero Wastage Cutlery
This cutlery was designed in response to seeing new evolving methods of cutlery production in Sheffield’s Portland Works by Knife Maker Stuart Mitchell. Stuart uses laser cutting to cut ‘knife blanks’ from sheets of steel. This project sought to make use of the wasted material between the knives as spoons and forks. Produced as a student the Royal College of Art.

About Me
Architecture should be uplifting and memorable. It should feel permanent and durable. It should be relevant to its place, framing key views and oriented to the climatic conditions, bringing natural light deep within. I am committed to producing unique and memorable spaces and are a delight to inhabit.
