Gulp was one of 12 different games created for the still to be released animated, family film Goose on the Loose starring Chevy Chase. A website was also built that allowed children to hatch their own gosling and watch it grow. Points were collected from playing games that could be used in a virtual mall to purchase clothes and accessories for your gosling and to decorate your nest.

Still one of my favourites, this site has a fun Japanese pop feel and a quirky, jello feel to the interface that was perfectly suited to the industrial designer it was created for.

Industrial Design

These are a couple of my industrial design projects from over the years. The bed frame is made from redwood and bambo, and uses special brackets that eliminate the need for any tools. The sign is modular in construction and uses removable acrylic name plate holders suspended on cables. The counter top is a 5' x 3' concrete island with chinese coins in the edge as an accent.
