Confessionale Collection
During an eight week mentorship with Cappellini I had the incredible opportunity to work under the guidance of Giulio Cappellini and create a chair to be used in public spaces such as hotel lobbies, airport lounges, and at office spaces that promotes privacy in such public spaces.

Sketches
My concept ideation after research and inspiration starts with sketching- good and bad ideas to get my thoughts onto paper.
Details
During the CAD process in Rhino is when I begin A/B testing and refine the details.
I make multiple iterations of the design and begin asking others what their preferences are and ask questions for overall design improvement.
