The COFA Annual 2013

Growing up on a rural property I was forever immersed in practical, creative projects whether it be timber work with Dad or painting with Mum. Now I can happily say I’ve found my calling in a field that both stimulates and challenges me.
I see value in design that has both seamlessness and substance; beneficial functionality teamed with character and reliability. One day I will hope to have my own workshop transforming redundant farm materials into beautiful timber furniture, but for now I want to explore the unknown, push boundaries and be an influential catalyst among my generation.
