Living and working in Japan for two years influenced my work through design, technique, tools, and way of thinking.

While there, I tried to glimpse old Japan. There are remnants, which influence today's products. This influence is not direct and is not something I can put my finger on. Rather, it is the little things that you use, walk by, or happen to be around, that have a quality of line and usefulness that beckon me.
