I’m Charlie, and I'm currently in my last year of study at Nottingham University in England. I’m studying Product Design and Manufacture and am loving it.

Having been at university I have really started to focus my designing and my thinking to a much more personal level. I enjoy trying to create flexible solutions whilst maintaining a modern simple, simplistic feel to every project I encounter.

Most of my inspiration comes from multifunctional, elegant consumer products and draws from a lot of modern, minimalist art.

My short term plans involve pushing forward Nine Studios Ltd, my recently setup design company, and working hard to get into a double masters at the Royal College of Art and Imperial College London.

My long term goals at the moment, they do change so often, include owning my own business designing and eventually selling the products designed by the company, as well as promoting design within the community.

I’d love to see people out and about using something designed!
