London Design Festival: Secret

One of three boards I’m showing at the London Design Festival. Secret is an exploration in intimacy and personal adornment. Secret is meant to be played with by bare feet under a desk, out of sight. This is a personal board. It is meant to be stroked, not to be ridden. It’s a treat for the owner. Secret is made of molded plywood and is upholstered with foam and leather.

London Design Festival: Mine

One of three boards that I’m presenting in the London Design Festival. Mine is an expression of identity and ownership. There is a keyhole in the back of the board. Turning the key turns on the small, golden light on the top of the board. The light has no function other than to identify the owner and add a piece of adornment to the board that only the owner has the ability to control. The board is meant to be carried, not ridden. The key is kept on a gold chain and the owner should feel that it is fancy enough to bring into a nice restaurant. ‘Mine’ is made of bamboo and the circuit is entirely contained within the spine under the board.
