Logan Square Soccer Club Sports Branding
The goal of the Logan Square branding project was to create an identity and uniform kit for a neighborhood soccer club. The brand had to connect the rich history of the neighborhood with the new sense of rebirth and culture.

Lagomorph Design Furniture Design
My role as a furniture designer at Lagomorph is one of many hats. Being a small team, I am able to be involved in multiple stages of the process and learn about the production by collaborating with the fabrication crew. Our clients included architects, designers, general contractors, and homeowners. We are involved in all stages of the process. Sometimes as designers and creators, others only as translators and fabricators.
Millwork & Furniture Projects
&
There are two project types Millwork & Furniture. Each project has a unique process before the final product is delivered.
a.
Process @ Lagomorph
In millwork projects, we translate the design intent identifying problems and discussing them with our clients. Then we work out the details, create shop drawings and fabricate.
In MDRN projects, we sketch concepts and create CAD models. We test our ideas by creating prototypes in our shop. Then we are able to identify problems in manufacturing and revise our designs.
b.
Concept Development During my time at Lagomorph, we’ve started to develop the MDRN line. These products are meant to be produced in batch quantities, not custom one-off’s like the majority of Lagomorph’s current business.
c.
MDRN Lamp The lamp project was an exercise in rapid production and customization. Using a core notch assembly system, it allowed us to create a totally customized form built on the same system of parts.
d.
Bar Cart
The bar cart was developed for CB2 and designed for low cost construction. The finish is white lacquer with veneered walnut drawers and solid walnut dowels. It’s designed for small and flexible living spaces.
e.
Air Hockey
The Air Hockey table was created as a special project for the semi annual Dock 6 Design & Art Show. We tested a new ‘w’ base form as a derivative of our popular ‘x’ base table.

Rocky Boots Footwear Design During the internship at Rocky Brands I helped to develop casual shoes and hunting boot designs for the fall season. Sketching and materials was a major emphasis. The summer long experience was a crash course in footwear design.
a.
Understanding Brand & Style Rocky Outdoor Gear is a world leader in rugged outdoor and occupational footwear. A corporate office, warehouse, and distribution center reside the original manufacturing building in Nelsonville that goes back to 1932
b.
The main project goal was to create a family of shoes that reflected the rugged feel of the Rocky brand but, integrated into a more casual everyday shoe. The challenge of the design was to create these designs on an existing outsole.
c.
Materials & Construction The hunting shoe uses durable Cordura material and full-grain water proof leather. A rigid plastic heel piece was added to lock the foot down across difficult terrain. The casual chukka is made from suede and a full grain leather. Accent stitching and laces gives the shoe a more fashionable feel.
d.
First Pullovers Test shoes were made and produced in a new manufacturer from the Dominican Republic. This project was also used to evaluate the plant’s abilities and quality control.
