The work

Heath had been pumping things out of clay since 1948. My job was everything that was not clay.

Creative strategy for the first ever non-clay goods. Cut and sew bags, flatware, and more.

Sub-brands

A brand identity system for Heath’s sub-brands, plus design systems for events across the year.

I shot the lifestyle and product photography, built the packaging systems, and crafted the print, retail graphics and web assets.
