ABOUT ME

My name is Alex Caves and I am a do-it-all designer based in Eugene, Oregon. With a background in metal fabrication, structural welding, woodworking, soft construction, ceramics, graphic design, and product design/development. No project is out of my wheelhouse. 

Being the youngest of 4, born in Japan, and moving to America with my family at the age of 7 with next to nothing, I've learned the value of observation and practical thinking which is why i became a designer. I am constantly asking 'Why' to everything, and focus on creating something that is both beautiful and highly practical. -- With a hint of Japanese influence of course.
