‘These elegant and functional bookshelves could be adapted to many diverse environments, the modular aspects are well conceived. We thought the portfolio was broad and exciting.’
Judges comment

‘Being selected as runner-up in the Peter Walker Award is a great way to finish university and start my career. As well as attracting attention to my furniture at new designers, the award has helped to affirm the direction that I have chosen and given me the confidence to pursue a career as a designer. I am now considering how to get my furniture into production, and setting up on my own. I was also fortunate to win a stand at 100% Design, so the award will definitely help towards producing more prototypes for this and extending the range of furniture.

It’s very early days for me, but it’s great to have such an encouraging start — thank you!’
