B. C. Joshua Designs

Blake Carlson-Joshua is a London based (Minneapolis born) designer and a maker exploring the material landscape in a hands on way. His work aims to interrogate and question pre-conceived narratives using a material based approach to the creation of objects. Frequently his work considers the resources around us challenging the notion of ‘waste’ by changing its context entirely.

Blake graduated from the Royal College of Art where he received his MA Design Products postgraduate degree.
