Taking inspiration from nature itself, I want to design a future that leaves the earth better than we found it. My name is Kaspian Murray, and I am a second-year industrial design student at the University of Cincinnati's College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning, with a focus on the design and development of softgoods, such as outdoorwear, gear, and equipment.

I'm driven by the question of how products can be made through sustainable, natural, and recycled means — reducing our footprint without sacrificing aesthetics or function.

Outside of the studio, I work as a portrait artist and mosaicist, with hands-on experience in sewing and garment construction. These practices keep me grounded in material and craft, which carries directly into everything I design.
