Barrett Rogers Design – http://brdworks.com

wow! certainly sums up the industrial design + multi-medium sculpture work from Barrett Rogers. His experiment with childhood and through to a humility filled high school adventure happened in Mattapoisett, Massachusetts. Shortly after graduating he ventured out, bouncing from state to state on a seemingly endless college career.

He spent about 3 years each pursuing majors including painting, sculpture, and interior design before finally settling in on industrial design. Barrett honed his design + finishing skills at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY while working as an architectural model builder.
