Someone I Admire: Brock Davis

I have chosen designer Brock Davis as the person who I admire and am inspired by. I chose him because of his unconventional concepts which clearly communicate a message using everyday items. He also manages to add humour to his work where appropriate.

I really liked his idea of creating something everyday as it really leads to variety and is a good way to channel ideas, most of the work from this project are things he has come across in everyday life. 

I intend to contact Brock through email and tweets to ask him a few questions.
