Small Installations
Invisible Safari
This nursery installation transforms a window recess beneath a cove into a subtle, immersive environment. A custom-built structure, painted to match the walls, blends seamlessly into the room, maintaining a calm and minimal presence during the day.
Laser-etched animal motifs are embedded within the surface and painted with invisible fluorescent inks, remaining hidden until activated by blacklight. At night, the installation comes alive with glowing imagery, introducing play, discovery, and wonder. The window shade continues this effect, revealing additional visuals under blacklight and adding depth to the experience.
The result is a space that shifts from quiet and restful to imaginative and engaging—balancing simplicity with moments of surprise.
The Fox & The Hole
This project began as a response to an improvised architectural condition: a window altered to accommodate a through-wall air-conditioning unit. When the unit was removed, the opening was temporarily filled with a plain wooden panel—functional, but visually disconnected from both the interior space and the surrounding landscape.
Rather than restore the window conventionally, the intervention reimagines the panel as a site for visual storytelling. The wood insert was replaced with a custom mosaic depicting the foxes that regularly pass through and inhabit the property. These animals, familiar yet fleeting, became the conceptual anchor for the piece—bridging interior space with the rhythms of the natural environment outside.
The mosaic transforms what was once a void into a point of engagement. It introduces texture and embeds narrative into an otherwise overlooked surface. Functionally, it maintains the opening’s closure; aesthetically, it reframes it—turning a remnant of utility into a permanent, site-specific expression of place and observation.
Paper Jungle
This temporary foamcore installation was created to transform a nursery into an immersive, jungle-inspired environment. Using lightweight, cut-and-layered foamcore elements, the space was populated with oversized foliage and dimensional textures that invite curiosity and exploration.
Designed for flexibility and ease of installation, the piece balances visual impact with practicality—allowing for quick assembly, safe interaction, and clean removal. The result is a vibrant, story-driven setting that turns an everyday room into an imaginative landscape tailored to early childhood engagement.
Where Lilies Glow
This wall installation was designed as a focal point for a child’s nursery, combining natural symbolism with light and material to create a calm, immersive presence. Inspired by the water lily—the child’s birth flower—the piece reflects themes of growth, stillness, and quiet emergence.
The sculpture is composed of layered, laser-cut wood elements that build depth through subtle variation and repetition. Each petal and leaf is carefully arranged to suggest gentle movement, as if the form is unfolding across the wall, adding warmth and softness.
Integrated backlighting casts a diffused glow that highlights the layered forms and enhances their dimensionality. By day, the piece reads as a sculptural surface; at night, it becomes a soft, ambient light source, creating a soothing environment for rest.
Both decorative and functional, the installation serves as a sculptural nightlight that anchors the room while carrying personal meaning.
