I'm a Chicago designer who graduated from Columbia College May 2010. I believe inspiration comes from unexpected places, and therefore it is necessary to look beyond the familiar to bring new ideas to light. This Tumblr allows me to record my discoveries in hopes of providing some nugget of truth or inspiration to the next fellow.

Maybe that is why the Strandbeests appear to be alive, and charm us. The Strandbeests themselves have let me make them.”
