A selection of works created through the byth8 workshop practice.
Each piece reflects a slow, hands-on process —
from material preparation to final finishing —
revealing subtle differences in form, texture, and light.
Rather than repetition, the focus is on variation.
Hand-cut natural nacre arranged with care,
allowing light and reflection to define each composition.
Inspired by traditional materials,
interpreted through a modern, minimal lens.
Light shifts across every fragment, revealing a different surface each time.
Nacre as drawing — line, space, and reflection held together.
A quiet form, designed to accompany everyday moments.
Pattern inspired by tradition, interpreted with restraint.
Pattern inspired by tradition, interpreted with restraint.
A small landscape, composed in shell and shadow.
Functional objects shaped through casting,
exploring balance between form, surface, and color.
Functional, yet guided by proportion and quiet presence.
Color as structure, surface as quiet detail.
A vessel defined by restraint, not decoration.
Small objects, designed to sit comfortably in space.
Form reduced to what remains essential.
Variation within repetition, each cast slightly different.
Works created through the meeting of materials,
where wood, nacre, and Jesmonite come together quietly.
Pattern built from fragments, anchored by wood grain.
Material contrast, resolved through proportion.
Objects arranged as a quiet still life.
