Furniture Design
A furniture and object design path grounded in joinery, ergonomics, and fabrication partners.
Where this leads
The confusion, addressed honestly
Furniture Design portfolios fail when they ignore making. Workshops, brands, and interior firms hire detailing and prototype evidence. Show drawings + built piece. Unbuildable concepts are fine for exploration — not as your only proof. Sustainability claims need material honesty. Studio and campus screens still reward ownership stories over tool-logo lists. Bring one artifact — case study, prototype, lookbook page, or critique notes — you can defend in depth.
