DESIGN

FARM

A personal passion to help people make their spaces beautiful and relevant to their needs

A finely tuned machine that generates place sensitive design output; A design studio that nutures unique solutions that feel as though they were meant to be

An homage to my family history and growing up around greenhouses and rice fields; A belief that we need to embrace and take care of our surroundings
