Tool Roll
Project Type: Soft Goods
I designed and constructed a custom tool roll to organize and protect essential design tools. Each pocket and section was carefully planned and sized to fit specific items, ensuring everything has its place and is easily accessible.
To assemble the tool roll, I used an industrial sewing machine and an edge cutter. The use of professional equipment helped create a functional, long-lasting tool roll tailored specifically to my design needs.
T.E. Alderman's
Project Type: Soft Goods
For T.E. Alderman’s, a 1920s Art Deco-themed bar and restaurant in Nevada, Iowa, I designed waitstaff attire to complement the space and enhance the overall dining experience.
The goal was to create uniforms that felt true to the elegance and sophistication of the Art Deco era while remaining practical and comfortable for daily use.
Inspired by the clean lines, bold geometry, and refined details of 1920s fashion, I focused on designing pieces that were functional and ensuring all staff members felt confident and cohesive.
