Hi, I’m Jake
I am a designer who is interested in exploring ideas and environments through research and responding in ways that allow me to better understand why things are how they are. My practice is centred around the collation and curation of ideas, events and interactions, with the intention of exploring and showcasing different perspectives and approaches to design.
