Design Captures
The design process is never a completely open book that allows unlimited freedom. At some point, considerations like material usage, time, and costs inevitably shape your decisions. In the previous video, large off-cuts were created—potentially wasteful unless repurposed—leading to the opportunity to design a smaller Lazy Sam.
Repetition plays a crucial role in mastering any skill. I can't count how many onions I've peeled, emulsions I've made, or fillets I've seared, but each task, when approached with intent and focus, creates growth. This same principle made it rewarding to return to the pottery wheel and create numerous similar pieces.
Merrior, the sea salt project I mentioned, was an idea I was passionate about but, like many projects, faced challenges. Collecting sea water, reducing it, and building a distribution system proved too too much for a side hustle. On the other hand, Tap Center, though it needs refinement, aligns with what I already do on weekends, making it replicable and full of potential for growth!!
