The Ralph Lauren Ames Studio Light is designed as a statement piece in a room. This product is inspired by the Fortuny Studio Lamp designed in 1907 and a vintage Japanese collapsible folding camera flash made in the 1960s. It was our intention to create a piece with some more weight and fortitude than the original inspiration. 

The Ralph Lauren Riley collection was inspired partly by some of the details of the Ralph Lauren collection handbags. A leather ring suspended by leather straps is a striking feature of the chandeliers. Stitched saddle leather edges and contrasting brass details make this piece simple yet elegant.  

A vintage match strike, or a matchstick holder, inspired the Ralph Lauren Barrett collection. Wanting something modern and simple, these pieces were designed to celebrate the knurled texture of the match strike and play with form and pattern. 

The Ralph Lauren Allegra collection incorporates hand-forged iron for a casual look and feel. Inspired by mission revival homes in Mulholland drive this collection strives to have a rustic feel yet is completely engineered to be lighter in weight when compared to other fully forged chandeliers.  

The Ralph Lauren NAOMI haning shade is a simple yet elegant hand forged iron ceiling lamp. Inspired by a vintage lamp hanging over Mr. Lauren's  billiard table in his Double RL ranch in Ridgeway, Co. 

The Sadie pendant was inspired by seed pods. Sadie was designed to make a statement in a room.

In collaboration with students and faculty from the new school and head exhibition designer Daniel Kern, we were tasked with the design and build of an exhibition in Lessac, France. The exhibition showcased aluminum objects made by Japanese people after WWII when steel was not available because of the need to make war machinery. The resourceful people of Japan then turned to aluminum that was more available from shot down planes and other sources.

The GT mirror uses the idea of a "gun tackle pulley" as its main inspiration. A round mirror is suspended by rope and perfectly weighted by a brass rod to create the idea of balance. This product was featured as part of an exhibit by The Future Perfect in 2010 called "Lift, Hold, Roll."[MG1] 

Inspired by WWII Sherman tanks. This chair was meant to look bulky but be light in construction. Aluminum legs and minimal interior construction helped balance the visual weight.

This collection of jewelry includes a paper flower broach, an aged silver zombie hand pendant, u-lock charm for 99L, and an arrow pendant and airplane ring.
