Media Reviews

Material Thoughts is an inspiring reference for students, designers and artists alike, a useful tool in the search to create something different or never done before.
Frame Magazine

Good title and I like the concept of discussing approaches to material use. Interesting content accompanied by product images that were refreshingly new. A book to be read cover to cover.
