Platter Series
Why
Platters
The platter series marked a shift from learning woodworking to refining it. Their simplicity demanded precision, respect for the material and careful attention to every detail.
My
Works
Walnut
Platter
This platter began with a single walnut board whose natural grain deserved to be the focus. Instead of adding a complex design, I kept the form simple, letting the wood speak for itself.
Shaping and finishing the board taught me to work with the material rather than against it. I learned that good design isn't about changing the wood, it's about revealing what is already there.

Walnut
Platter
Made from a single piece of walnut, this platter was an exercise in restraint. Its simplicity demanded precision, with every curve, edge and layer of finish shaping the final result.
By allowing the natural grain to remain the focal point, I learned that thoughtful craftsmanship is as much about what you leave untouched as what you create.

Whale
Board
I made this serving board during a woodworking workshop in Goa, where I learned to use tools such as the bandsaw and thickness planer for the first time.
Designing the whale silhouette pushed me beyond simple geometric forms, teaching me that every curve matters and that simplicity demands precision.

Fractual
Burn Platter
During a woodworking workshop, I explored fractal wood burning-where electricity follows the wood's natural grain to create unique branching patterns.
The unpredictability of the process taught me to adapt, experiment and let the material guide the final design, an approach I later carried into projects like the River Table.

Designing the whale silhouette pushed me beyond simple forms. Refining every curve expanded both my technical skills and creativity.It taught me that simplicity demands precision.

Fractual
Burn Platter
This platter was inspired by a woodworking workshop, where I learned how electricity could create natural decorative patterns. Guided by the instructors, I discovered that the design is burned by a controlled electrical current following the wood's grain, making every piece unique.
The process was unpredictable, teaching me to embrace uncertainty and design with the material rather than against it, a mindset that later shaped projects like the river table.

Learning
To Observe
If my early projects taught me how to build, the platter series taught me how to observe. Instead of imposing a design, I learned to let the wood's grain guide the final form.
Working with hardwoods taught me that the material always has a voice. The craft lies not in overpowering it, but in listening closely enough to know when to follow it.
"I stopped trying to make more complicated projects and started trying to make better ones."
