WORK EXPERIENCE

POP Plus

I was an intern at POP Plus, a furniture and lighting design studio that focuses on designing and making concrete furniture with other contrasting materials. As a designer and fabricator at POP Plus, I was involved in the design and manufacture of moulds and furniture pieces under the guidance of my industry supervisor. This process involved the use of CAD software (Solidworks), tools (including CNC machine, table saw, power tools and a range of other technical equipment) and handling concrete and other materials such as wood, metals and fasteners. I was also involved in designing mechanisms to join parts of furniture pieces and contributed with the installation of furniture pieces for clients.
