Next project
Jewellery/object design, CAD, Metal Fabrication
Noise Complaints is an ongoing independent project exploring the intersection of industrial design, contemporary jewellery, and underground music culture through a series of self-initiated metal objects.
Rooted in my design background, this project delineates influences from Bauhaus functionalism and Brutalist architecture into wearable forms. The resulting aesthetic prioritises clarity of structure, mass, and proportion, intentionally distancing itself from the ornamental, bohemian-gothic language commonly associated with contemporary jewellery.
The project began as a hands-on investigation into fabrication and manufacturing processes, with an emphasis on learning by doing. I designed and produced a series of prototypes — including rings, pendants and lace locks — working directly with metal through cutting, welding, chamfering, sanding, polishing, engraving, and surface finishing. This process-led approach allowed design decisions to be informed by material constraints and production realities rather than purely visual outcomes. Alongside physical making, I began learning CAD to translate these forms into manufacturable files, enabling future scalability through casting, CNC machining, and outsourced plating.
