Liam is an industrial designer based in Vancouver whose work elegantly fuses function, curiosity, and a quiet sense of wonder. With a background rooted in hands-on trades and a degree in industrial design from Emily Carr University, Liam's practice draws from both technical knowledge and a lifelong, intuitive relationship with objects.
From childhood, Liam demonstrated a natural sensitivity to materials and form - reshaping everyday encounters into sensory experiences. That instinct now anchors a design language where geometry, utility, and a subtle playfulness coexist. His pieces are not just solutions; they are sculptural dialogues between shape and intent - designed to be lived with, touched, and questioned.
At the core of Liam's work is a fascination with unconscious aesthetics - how objects make us feel before we understand them. His designs often reframe industrial archetypes (transformers, clamps, aircraft components) into refined, minimal forms that invite interaction. Whether building a credenza meant to move from city to city or a lamp that feels like a riddle, Liam approaches design as a sensory practice - tactile, intentional, and often a little mischievous.
His work has been featured at IDS Vancouver and recognized by
Dezeen as part of a new generation of independent designers shaping the West Coast's creative identity. Through his studio practice, he continues to explore how thoughtful design can transform the everyday into something quietly extraordinary.
