MARBLE & RESIN MINI BOWLING SET
description // concept
Through research, I identified the explosive growth in the game industry during the COVID-19 quarantine period, and set out to provide customers of Anthropologie with a solution. Taking into consideration that many people were now working from their own home offices, I determined a tabletop desk game would be an excellent solution to provide some entertainment and joy to an otherwise bleak situation. A wood backboard is paired with a marble base, adorned with brushed brass inlay and a ball. Though my initial design featured mixed wood and resin pins, the set ultimately debuted with solely resin pins due to vendor limitations.

BOHO BITS GAME COLLECTION
description // concept
I designed this collection for At Home stores as a push to supply locations with games
and puzzles as a response to the influx of demand for ageless interactive toys during the COVID-19 quarantine period. The boho games were designed with a corresponding stationery collection, and all were merchandised in a shared aisle together to encourage customers to purchase multiple items in one visit. Featured games and gifts include puzzles, checkers, tic-tac-toe, dominoes, stacking blocks, mancala and roll-out backgammon sets. The collection was displayed on the retailer's standard 48"x48" fixtures.

DINNER PARTY DARES
description // concept
Dinner Party Dares was a project that I was especially excited to create. A paperwrapped cardboard box houses 40 dare cards, featuring 13 different print patterns on a variety of
10 various pattern layouts. I designed each of these patterns, some physically with water-color and some digitally. These prints were also used across various other hardgoods and softgoods products during the holiday season at Anthropologie. Each of the 40 cards have
a dare that dinner guests can play throughout their meal, along with a funny quip to make
the partygoers laugh. My original dares featured a fold and tuck design, with each card meant to feel like it was revealing a fun secret.

description // concept
Through research, I identified the explosive growth
in the game industry during the COVID-19 quarantine period, and set out to provide Anthropologie custom-ers with a solution. This marble and resin stacking
game functions as both a striking statement piece
in the home, as well as an interactive game for two.
A wood base is accented with brushed brass metal
pegs, and the hand cut and polished white marble balls
sit beautifully along with resin balls that are meant to simulate a Himalayan rock salt stone without the mess of the sweating that typically accompanies this rock.
ORIGINAL CONCEPT RENDERING
Featuring marble balls and peach-toned, trans-parent resin balls on brass knobs and wood base.
