In late 2023, I was approached by an associate who had recently acquired a local coffee shop. The space needed a signboard—something practical, but also distinct from the generic aesthetics saturating the area.
I designed and hand-painted a modular signage system, allowing flexibility for daily menu changes and events while maintaining a cohesive visual identity. The concept balanced functionality with cultural nuance, subtly reflecting the neighborhood’s rhythm and clientele.
What began as a utilitarian need became a quiet brand differentiator—turning a common coffee shop fixture into a conversation piece.

Invited by SCP London to join a group collection alongside British designers Reiko Kaneko, Daniel Eatock, Donna Wilson, and Stewart Easton, I designed a tea towel and tray set of my own conception. I chose to explore the theme of the birth of the universe, creating a cosmic-inspired collection that blends science, art, and utility. The collection is available for purchase online.
