Design narrative & concept origins

I authored the initial aesthetic and functional concept for the Streetleaf Path streetlight. To bridge design and manufacturing, a mechanical engineer converted the concept into a production-ready CAD model. Using the final production 3D data, I created all 3D visualizations and photorealistic environmental renders to bring the commercial vision to life.

Final Design Concept

A functional sculpture crafted from a continuous blended surface—designed to stand alone as artwork or harmonize with its environment.
