I’m excited to introduce some new work at IMM Cologne next week, and to visit Germany for the first time. If you’re in the area, I’d love to get a drink and meet up. I’m showing my designs at the entrance to Hall 3.1, as part of DesignSpotter’s d3 exhibit.
Sorapot Art Contest
Leave a Comment
Sorapot has been out for half a year now, and many of my customers are designers, artists, engineers, and other creative people. You’ve given me extremely valuable feedback on my design, but I’ve always been curious to see your thoughts expressed the way you usually express them: visually. With the holidays here, a Sorapot Art [...]

Re-telling a familiar story

I just received a shipment of new Sorapots, and opened ordering once again. The most exciting part of this for me is the feedback I’m going to get as more people use their Sorapots for the first time. Since Sorapot was just a sketch in my Social Psychology 135 notebook in college over two years [...]
Interview on PSFK
1 Comment
My friend Piers Fawkes has an insightful trendspotting blog called PSFK that’s one of my daily reads (although I still haven’t figured out what the name stands for). He recently interviewed me about how Sorapot was launched through design blogs, why hustling is critical for independent designers, and why stainless steel might save the world. [...]
