The Chai Table
This is an innovative furniture piece that seamlessly integrates the ceremonial essence of Asian tea rituals with contemporary design sensibilities.
At the heart of the Chai Table is an ingenious internal hole, a design choice that allows the incorporation of a flower pot.
Where Tradition Meets Modernity
The ritual pouring of the first cup of tea into this cavity is not just a nod to tradition providing nourishment to the plants cradled within.

THE SCENCE OF SAFETY
The candle warmer lamp is created as a safer and efficient alternative to traditional candle burning , melting wax using an incandescent bulb, which releases the candle’s fragrance without the need for an open flame.
The desing is a response to the modern consumer’s desire for products that are functional, stylish, and safe. Reflecting a deep understanding of our clients needs and a commitment to meeting them with elegance and inno vation.

COFFEE
foldable coffe filter
The original filter had a bulky, rigid plastic structure, which occupied valuable space, so i transitioned from the conventional to a flexible, collapsible silicone structure.
My redesign of the Wakako coffee filter , which I’ve named the Folda Moka, stemmed from a genuine consumer need for space-saving design without compromising the quality of their beloved coffee ritual.

The eco lid, with its sloping side, seamlessly complements the volcano theme, symbolizing the gradual ascent to the explosive taste experience that awaits.
BOTTLE LID
Its design is not only aesthetically aligned with the bottle’s contours but also environmentally conscious with the growing preference for sustainable packaging.
La Garrocha stands as a testament to design inspired by nature’s raw power.
Drawing from the imposing silhouette of a volcano , the bottle encapsulates the fiery spirit of the hot sauce it holds. I chose the volcano shape for its natural association with heat and intensity, which mirrors the bold flavors of La Garrocha sauce.

For the “Scent Harmony” aroma diffuser, I sought to encapsulate a sense of tranquility and natural balance. The design is a marriage of organic with the clean, functional lines of modern living.
In conceiving “Scent Harmony,” I envisioned a diffuser that’s not only an object of utility but also one of contemplation, enhancing the environment with both its design and its function.

BOTTOM PIECE
The base, crafted from bamboo, is not just a nod to sustainability but also an homage to nature’s unrivaled beauty. It grounds the object, both literally and figuratively, with a tactile touch that invites interaction.

Base and Frame: The chair’s base is a sturdy, yet lightweight metal frame, shaped like a flattened ‘U’.
