Relevé Design
First, I need to introduce you to two uber creative people. Andrew Wagner stands tall in the world of DIY and crafting as the current director of Krrb, founding editor-in-chief of Dwell, and former head honcho for American Craft magazine and ReadyMade. Jen Turner is an award-winning architect and designer who’s projects have graced the […]
I’m collaborating with Krrb again. This time they asked me to lead a workshop. I invited Vanessa over to my studio to take a look at some possible projects to do. In the end we went with the six-pack ring pendant light. We’re going to make it EXTRA SUPER EASY for everyone! We’re supplying all […]
I’m proud to have designed and donated the living and dining room lighting for the Nevins family on the Joplin episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. If you missed it here’s the two part, two hour series finale. Make sure you have a box of tissue paper at the ready before press play!
I’m finally getting around to writing about my day on The Nate Berkus show from my point of view. The previous posts about the day were by Reid and Josef. On the show I reminded Nate he had given me one week to work on the challenge. That’s mostly true. Almost all the projects that […]
ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition contacted me late last September. They asked if I would work with them to design some lighting for one of the Joplin homes. Eventually, I deduced a month later I was designing for the Nevins family. The show requested multiple pendant lights for two rooms. Of course the houses weren’t […]

The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition team heads to Joplin, Mo., to rebuild homes for seven families affected by a catastrophic tornado. I was honored to be asked to design […]

Tune in to see exactly what the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition team had us design for one deserving family. Stay tuned for posts on more details on […]
One morning while getting coffee in the kitchen at work, I happened to glance into the trashcan. A stack of six-pack rings sat neatly on the trash heap. It’s such a waste they get thrown out after being used just once to keep soda cans together. The plastic has an interesting shape. It’s pliable and […]
These are not your run-of-the-mill crafts! I’ll tell you how I find inspiration in art and design and take it to a whole nother level. Then I’ll show how you can use that inspiration to make your own cool DIY projects on a dime. Watch me on The Nate Berkus Show, Monday, December 12, 2011. […]
I haven’t had piece in a gallery in a long time. I was delighted to make my return in October at Parsons’ inaugural alumni exhibition. I was truly honored to be included with such a talented bunch! The place was packed with guests, alumni, and wonderful works of art and design. The Helianthus pendant light […]
