Dildo Maker

The Dildomaker is a device that transforms cylindrical materials into phallic shapes, inspired by Raymond Loewy’s iconic Pencil Sharpener. It explores contemporary hedonism and the quest for satisfaction, blending design and symbolism to provoke thought on pleasure and desire in modern society.

Material: PLA 3D printed model
Dimensions ( Lx Wx H): 290mm x 400mm

Seul en Selle

Seul en Selle is a sculptural bench inspired by the shape of a bicycle saddle, challenging conventional seating typologies and perceptions of comfort. By translating the familiar yet often temporary experience of a bike seat into a lounge setting, the design invites users to engage with balance, posture, and personal space in a new way.

Combining minimal aesthetics with an evocative form, the bench plays with contrasts—between movement and stillness, utility and relaxation—creating an intriguing focal point in any space.

Material: Steel, foam, wood, Fake Leather
Dimensions (L xW xH): 2900mm x 1200mm x 400mm

Steam Madonnas

Steam Madonnas is a critical design project exploring the intersection of feminism, capitalism, and domestic labor. By reimagining the everyday steam iron—a symbol of unpaid and undervalued domestic work—this project highlights the persistent gender inequalities woven into consumer culture.

Featuring branding inspired by feminist icons and dials marked with systemic issues like the gender pay gap, cognitive load, and domestic violence, Steam Madonnas transforms a mundane household object into a statement on the invisible labor that sustains economies. Through irony and industrial design, the project challenges the normalization of gendered roles, questioning who truly benefits from so-called progress.

Fully digital project.

Prohibition Kit

The Prohibition Kit is a subversive design project that challenges notions of legality, functionality, and craftsmanship. At first glance, it consists of a collection of beautifully crafted copper objects—each an innocuous standard component. However, once assembled, these elements reveal their hidden purpose: an illicit distillation device.

The project explores the fine line between regulation and autonomy, questioning how design can subvert authority and empower personal agency. By repurposing everyday materials into a tool for forbidden production, The Prohibition Kit critiques the intersection of prohibition laws, DIY culture, and the hidden economies that thrive in their shadow.

Dimensions (seat⌀ x H): 290mm x 400mm

Emotilocks

The "Emotilocks" series artistically transforms ordinary padlocks into intricate symbols of emotion with contemporary or timeless themes. By blending traditional symbols of security with contemporary icons, the series questions the significance of these topics in today's digital age.

Each lock becomes a canvas for exploring the complexities of human emotion, juxtaposing the cold rigidity of metal with the warmth of affection. "Emotilocks" invites viewers to reflect on the evolving nature of relationships in an interconnected world.

Material: Misc Metal, PLA 3d printed
Dimesions: Variables

The Banker

The Subprime Crisis of 2007-2008 exposed how major banks profited from reckless speculation while millions suffered. Around the same time, a study published in the Journal of Forensic Sciences found that 90% of U.S. banknotes carried traces of cocaine—a sign of the deep ties between drug money and global finance. Banks have long been key players in money laundering, turning illicit profits into clean capital.

The Banker is an allegory—a machine that does not just process banknotes, but exposes the hidden links between finance and crime, speculation and addiction, power and secrecy.
At the top, a banknote counter tracks and sorts the bills, just as banks count their profits without questioning their origins. The bills then move to the washing unit, where special solvents remove traces of cocaine—just as international banks "clean" illicit money through legal loopholes. The contaminated liquid, or "dirty juice," is extracted and sent to the next stage.

In the lower section, a centrifuge separates solid residues, mirroring the way financial institutions separate themselves from direct criminal involvement while still benefiting from it. The final step uses High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Mass Spectrometry to analyze and extract pure cocaine crystals, revealing the raw product behind these transactions.

By making the invisible visible, The Banker is a critique of the lack of transparency in global finance. It reflects a system where banks, drug cartels, and speculative markets are deeply intertwined—where financial crises and drug epidemics are symptoms of the same unchecked greed.
