What began as a fascination with lawn mower engines and model rockets has turned into a full-time passion for building and making. No project too complicated, no request too daunting, David believes in Figure Plant’s ability to take on any creative assignment and make it amazing. As Figure Plant’s chief creator with more than 35 years in design and production, David sums up his management philosophy this way: “Artists and artisans are at their best when they’re supported, encouraged, and treated with respect and dignity. To me, this ecology is the best possible environment for a company dedicated to supporting the visions of other creative professionals.”
