Architectural & Interior
These concept designs span a wide range of themes, aesthetics, and visual languages—from the classical and ornamental to the contemporary, symbolic, and unexpected. Drawing upon history, mythology, architecture, nature, music, sacred imagery, and the decorative arts, these works move fluidly between timeless traditions and entirely new visual possibilities. Influences are frequently blended across periods, cultures, and disciplines to create designs intended not merely as images, but as richly layered works capable of evolving into objects of atmosphere, material beauty, sculptural presence, and enduring significance.
Though varied in subject matter, all are united by a singular aim: to create objects of uncommon beauty, richness, atmosphere, and presence. These works are conceived not as flat imagery, but as future porcelain and glass objects—dimensional, sculptural, richly detailed, and often gilded—created with an emphasis on clarity, depth, craftsmanship, materiality, and enduring beauty. Many remain unrealized pending the development of our manufactory, existing for now as part of an ongoing process of refinement, experimentation, and artistic evolution as we strive to bring as many of these visions as possible into beautiful and lasting three-dimensional fruition.

For Wedgwood to replicate my Serenity Medallion they would have to 'lay-on' every white object by hand taking many hours; a task likely avoided today due to difficulty/time/cost factors. I cast my Serenity and Princess Diana roundels in approximately forty minutes. The teaching/learning curve for a worker trained to cast in Jasperware porcelain is easy. Low to moderate skill level is all that is needed. I have to add here that I have had very limited experience glazing THE SPIDER’S LAIR and I find casting Jasperware 1000x easier!
Immediately below are my designs of some ‘FROZEN’ Roundels showing what spectacularly complex, beautiful objects can be created.
