Collette Collins Design / ENCAUSTIHYDE




"ENCAUSTIHYDE" 
"The process of working with Collette Collins Design is like meeting with Louis Vuitton before your big event and taking your pick from his designs—and then suggesting changes tailored just for you. In the world of architecture, the architect designs your home, or dress—if you will—, but Collette Collins designs the “accessories” that make your home more “you.”
Collette Collins is a designer and builder of unique sculptural furniture, cabinetry, and decorative wall coverings; including mirrors, work stations, and housing for appliances.Because she is not attached to just one medium, Collette draws from a broad body of knowledge to design using diverse materials, from exotic hardwoods to beeswax-and-leather encaustics; rubber, fabric, lead to suede and acrylic. This adaptability in her one-of-a-kind designs is also what enables Collette to integrate salvage material into her fashionable, cutting-edge pieces."
For the last two years I have worked with just a few of the product lines that this talented female artist, designer, builder, and creative thinker has produced. It has been a real honor to shoot these product / art pieces, with her and for her.
