about

designer based in Austin, TX.

Hello! I’m Mike

My background spans theatre, experiential, sculpture, furniture, and millwork. As a designer and fabricator, I am passionate about making high quality, one of a kind pieces.

​I seek balance in my designs. Bold and subtle, form and function, playful and sophisticated. Ultimately, my attention is always turned to the details. Charles Eames said it best: “The details are not the details. They make the design.” Quality and character are found in the details.

If you’re looking for something beautiful and personal, let’s collaborate! Email me below.

 

“Good design is thorough, down to the last detail.”

“The opposite of war isn’t peace, it’s creation.”

- Jonathan Larson

“We’re making the best we can make, to the best of our ability, out of love and devotion. That’s what it is.”

- Rick Ruben
