Work history
Prop MakerHarvey Nichols
Alperton, Wembley HA0 1HU, UKFreelance
As a team we creative various window displays for Harvey Nichols. I’ve used multiple materials and techniques on each display. We create about 6 schemes a year for different seasons, and projects.
There are various responsibilities I’ve taken on here, from planning, sampling and testing for our designer, actually creating her designs into 3D creations and installing the projects.
At Harvey Nichols every scheme is completely different, from really natural, to extremely colourful and wacky. This has given me a real understanding of fabrication. We’ve had schemes made entirely from polystyrene and painted to look realistic. One was made entirely from paper. It allowed me to really expand my knowledge in basic materials like paper, tie dye and polystyrene, and also experiment with more challenging techniques like carpentry, fibreglassing, resin work and metal work. This has given me a breadth of knowledge which is all transferrable to another skill. Due to having more experience with fibreglassing and resin, on multiple occasions I’ve been given the opportunity to teach my colleagues these techniques as well.
