Toolshed
To design is to give form to what does not yet exist, to build a corner of the world that invites us to live more fully, to see and feel with fresh eyes and open hearts.
The ‘Toolshed’ is my laboratory for this exploration. It’s where ideas—wild, untamed, and deeply personal—are transformed into tangible creations that nourish both the self and the world around us. Or at least my humble attempt to.
For example, with WILDSOUND, I sought to restore our ancient bond with nature, crafting a portal through sound that connects us to the vital water sources that have sustained life for millennia. And with ROADREINS, I reimagined the experience of biking, turning a utilitarian journey into an urban cowboy’s adventure, easing the strain of the ride while amplifying the joy of movement.
Beauty isn’t just something you see—it’s something you feel, something that shifts your perspective and draws you into the world anew. All my work is about striving to create the things and spaces that invite mindfulness, connection, and a touch of wonder.

Dadvice: Unsolicited and Unqualified
Parenting is an act of balance, akin to wielding powerful magic. It is about equipping children with the tools to navigate the complex interplay of their virtues and vices, their strengths and weaknesses. This task requires parents, especially fathers, to be well-integrated individuals themselves, capable of guiding their children through the nuances of the human experience. These ‘field notes’ are my experiences as a single dad raising my son - which I hope will help others in my situation (or any dad) to navigate their own journey with a bit more confidence and serenity…so maybe they do some growing up too.
