AGL Table Group
2012

The AGL Table Group for Herman Miller is an efficient solution for executive desks, residential dining and conference needs. Both powered and non-powered versions utilize an aluminum base to support table surfaces in stone, veneer or formcoat. When powered, an arrangement of innovative trays mounted beneath the edge of the surface incorporate electrical outlets and enough space to accommodate wires, transformers and tablets; the trays are engineered to smoothly handle tangled cords when opening and closing. The design brings power access into the personal space of the user while preventing clutter on the table surface.

Bar Stool
2011

Revolver is a four-legged rotating bar stool. Through the integration of a ball bearing into the lower ring, the foot rest turns together with the seat, creating a surprising yet functional experience. By allowing one's entire body to turn at once Revolver enables what bar stools are best suited for: socializing with friends.

Desk
2010

Similar to a flat file, this desk allows horizontal stacks of paper to be partially obscured under the surface but quickly accessed by extending the trays. Available now at Wright 21.

Bank
2009

The change in these hand blown money banks can be accessed by breaking the glass. Available in three sizes.

Cranbrook
2009

A semester-long workshop with 13 graduate 3-D Design students focused on the body's physical relationship with objects to better inform the design process. The project concluded with an exhibition of the student's work at The Javits Center during ICFF 2009.

Pen
2009

The DBA Pen is composed of 98% recycled materials and contains a proprietary environmentally responsible ink formula. Produced at a wind-powered facility in the United States, it was designed as an alternative to the wasteful and often toxic pens we use almost every day.

Humidifier
2008

This humidifier projects a cylindrical column of mist from a round vent circling the tank. A glance through the transparent lid reveals the current water level. Should it be low, the tank can be lifted off the base for refilling. An ultrasonic evaporation system provides energy-efficient, cool mist humidification for spaces up to 540 square feet.

Notebooks
2008

These notebooks can be grouped together using the pocket on the cover, making it easy to combine different paper types, (graph, lined, blank,etc.) or to simply add on to an existing diary or sketch book. Made from recycled paper using renewable energy.

Dishrack
2008

A dense concentration of rods useful for holding cutlery and thin glassware fades evenly to a spacing large enough to accommodate bowls, plates and pans. A flexible mesh connects the posts, allowing the structure to be twisted open and rinsed. The excess water drains into a tray beneath, which can be emptied and cleaned. In collaboration with Gwendolyn Floyd.

Extension Cord
2007

A polypropylene spool makes organization easy - twenty feet of PVC-free cable fits inside the flat stackable disc.

Heater
2007

Two aluminum panels containing high-efficiency conductive elements provide a lightweight heat source. The DBA heater ships flat and can be assembled with minimal effort. During the warmer months, the cord can be spooled around the central handle for easy storage.

Stool
2006

The wedged triangular seat of this small stool combines the qualities of a bicycle seat and a riding saddle, providing a comfortable place to rest for short tasks.

Mirror Box
2006

The mirrored interior of this box creates complex reflections of the user and the objects placed within it. In collaboration with Gwendolyn Floyd.

Lampshade
2005

Using a simple slip and lock mechanism, the sphere fits over a light bulb and can be secured onto any size cord. In collaboration with Gwendolyn Floyd.

Doormat
2004

The profile of this doormat is is cut to resemble a brush that was once uniform in length but has been worn in. The shorter bristles can be used for everyday use, while the longer are useful for removing extra dirt when necessary.

Medicine Cabinet
2004

The form and placement of the crystal lens on this medicine cabinet references the small magnifiers found over the date on many analog wrist watches.
