Elpis Jar
MAIN PURPOSE: Keep small treasures in a jar with hope beneath
A lidded jar for the myth of Pandora: when everything else escaped, hope stayed in the bottom. An 84 mm jar with a fluted, scalloped outline like an ancient vessel wears a knobbed lid, and the word HOPE is engraved under its base, so whatever you keep in it, hope is always there. A gift for someone going through a hard time.

Soundmark
MAIN PURPOSE: Display a spoken phrase as a waveform sculpture

String-gnomon garden sundial
MAIN PURPOSE: Tell solar time from a string shadow

Prime-sequence acoustic diffuser tile
MAIN PURPOSE: Scatter sound reflections in a small studio
A one-dimensional diffuser for a home studio: seven steps whose heights follow the quadratic-residue sequence for the prime 7 scatter mid and high reflections evenly instead of bouncing them straight back, taming flutter echo. Hang a row on the wall behind the speakers.

Up-and-down wall sconce for an LED puck
MAIN PURPOSE: Cast up and down light from an LED puck

Hanging Savonius wind spinner
MAIN PURPOSE: Spin in the wind as a garden mobile
An S-rotor that turns in the faintest breeze from any direction: hang it floor up from a fishing swivel through the centre hole, and the two offset half-blades work like a Savonius turbine, flashing round as the wind pushes one and slips past the other.

Cascading cup tabletop fountain
MAIN PURPOSE: Make a small tabletop water cascade
Three overlapping cups of falling height stand in a shallow basin: a small USB pump in the basin lifts water into the tallest cup, which overflows into the next and the next, the sound of a tiny waterfall on a desk or windowsill.

Tensegrity floating display stand
MAIN PURPOSE: Float a display shelf on tensioned lines

Candle clock scribing sleeve
MAIN PURPOSE: Mark hour rings on a candle
Turns a plain 22 mm dinner candle into a candle clock: slide the sleeve over the top with the wick through the floor hole and score a ring through each slit. The marks sit 25 mm apart, about an hour of burning each, so the flame counts down an evening.

Mashrabiya lattice screen tile
MAIN PURPOSE: Screen a window with dappled light and air
