Hello, I’m Danny.
I’m a young designer based in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina.
I’m using this website to showcase my life’s best work, ranging from professional work, to hobby projects, to grant-funded experimental ventures.
I am a Maker.
My focus – quality of craft, simple functionality, & the beauty of natural materials.
My pursuit of craftsmanship began as a teenager, building a cedar strip canoe in my backyard with good friends.
This formative project revealed how deeply satisfying it is to make something by hand, & sparked my passion for woodworking & design.
I am a Designer.
My mission – to create useful, beautiful, & intuitive solutions to real-world problems.
Good design is simple, obvious, & pleasing to the senses. It must be impactful, fill a legitimate need, & not be extraneous.
In process we trust – I always leave room for iteration, playfulness, happy accidents, & emotion. flexibility & creative confidence is key.
