• Work closely with the production team to achieve perfect colour matching and finishes for each collection. Ensure consistency in colour and texture across various pieces, from dinner plates to decorative homeware.
• Develop initial design concepts that align with the brand’s vision, and refine these concepts through iterative feedback, prototype testing, and design revisions. Transition concepts into final design stages, ensuring they meet both aesthetic and functional requirements.
• Oversee the creation of prototypes, working closely with manufacturers to ensure the final product reflects your design vision. Make adjustments as needed based on testing and production feedback to ensure quality control.
• Act as a liaison between design and production teams to ensure that your designs are accurately translated into high-quality, mass-produced items. Provide guidance during production, ensuring adherence to design specifications.
• Ensure that all pieces within a collection are cohesive in design, size, and material choices, maintaining a consistent look and feel across dinnerware sets and homeware collections.
