I am excited to share my first graduation project with everyone. “The Shape I Was; a ceramic journal” began as an exploration of production flaws and evolved into a physical journal.
I started making rectangular water pitchers, inviting honest mistakes in the process by deforming the pieces quickly and intuitively. After firing several pieces, I was struck not only by the new life they seemed to possess, but by the object’s ability to hold memories. Seeing them frozen in forms shaped by my hands, I could remember how he felt that day. I continued the process for over 50 consecutive days, Titling each piece with its production date and a short description of how it was shaped.
Material: Earthenware
Size: 28 cm by 18 cm by 8 cm

Final day to check out my Push & Pull series at exhibiting at @art_space_auto_vitesse during @dutchdesignweek
Push & Pull - 2025
A push broom exploring how aluminium extrusion can become a tactile, handheld object. A single profile is cut, assembled, and anodized, shifting the material from industrial utility to an intimate gesture of use and care, using only the logic of its own assembly system.

What a door can be - 2025 Graduation
I designed a door that asks you to slow down. To rethink the simple act of opening and closing. Made from aluminium extrusions and sunshade textile, it bends and shifts like fabric, turning a routine gesture into something intentional.
The structure’s strength comes from the extrusions, while the textile introduces softness and light. Together they create a door that doesn’t just divide space, but becomes part of it.
More information and photos from my process can be found on my website. Link in bio.
