FROM VISIONS TO REALITY
JEWELLERY DESIGN
With an innovative mind-set, strong 3D skills and graphic background, I create advanced jewellery designs that turn visions into reality. From initial sketches and vibrant illustrations to tangible prototypes and detailed 3D designs with renderings, I bring precision to the process, guiding each design from concept to production readiness.
IDEATION PROCESS
After my research phase, defining the market and user segmentation ensuring the final design is grounded in knowledge, I begin the ideation process. From initial sketch to vibrant and testable illustrations - each step is a stroke towards bringing jewellery concepts to life. I excel in transforming quick sketches into detailed colored illustrations, whether painted by hand or in Photoshop, or turned into vectors in Illustrator. Below were made in 2022.
3D - RHINO CEROS
3D design has revolutionized my jewellery design, enabling the creation of intricate designs beyond traditional methods. Proficient in RhinoCeros, I craft both geometric and organic designs. From rapid prototypes to production-ready files with accurate ring sizes and stone setting preparations, I've got you covered.
PROTOTYPES
I often use 3D to make rapid yet realistic prototypes to test shape and size. Enhanced by gold spray painting, it simulates the look and feel of real jewellery.
RENDERING & IMITATION
Using KeyShot and Photoshop, I bring my 3D jewellery designs to life. With vivid renderings and realistic photo editing, I integrate my 3D creations into photographs, creating captivating visuals and unique storytelling.
TECHNOLOGY & CRAFTSMANSHIP
Mastering the fusion of 3D technology with an understanding of traditional craftsmanship is essential for creating innovative jewellery. While I'm not a goldsmith myself, I have gained deep insights into production methodologies through my collaborations with jewellery manufacturers, ensuring high quality in each piece.
Sustainability is at the forefront of my production ethos. I prioritize the use of recycled gold and silver, ethical gemstones, and eco-friendly packaging. However, I recognize that true sustainability requires a holistic approach, including meaningful dialogue with consumers.

CREATING A
JEWELLERY BRAND
Since 2021, I have created my own small 3D jewellery brand, but it’s important to emphasize that this is purely a creative side project, concluding next quarter and transition into a hobby. I've gained hands-on experience in market research, pricing, production details, user testing, web mastering, shipping and more. However, my true passion just lies in designing jewellery itself and branding it ♡ My focus is on applying my skills and expertise to contribute to innovative projects within established companies.
