The piece reflects the letter m's historical context of water in Semitic languages. It displays the form's movement replicating a 'double wave' and mimics microscopic water.

m, Aa–Z! : a typographic installation 

This project looked at an existing well known apartment complex in Wellington - Gordon Wilson Flats. Flat C was chosen, then existing drawings were created. From there, the apartment was redesigned, specified and presented. The designer used colours from the 50s, when the building was built as well as ample storage to ensure the small studio apartment wasn't cluttered..
