ing i began to explore various types of materials, and took an interest in tactile and industrial materials for the use of ramp jerwellery, and later for my own ranges. [www.adendorff.blogspot.com/]
I did many Collaborrations with South African Fashion Designers, Milkmaid, Native, Britt Cormack-Foe, as well as my own private exhibitions.I moved to CapeTown and abandoned my jewellery skills, to started work as a scale model maker and props, manufacturer .I was inspired by various casting, and mould making methods, as well as the vast array of casting rubbers and plastics.
During that Period i learnt to work with industrial machinery, and became familiar with various Industrial tools and their working methods.
On one particular commision as a freelancer, I opted to design prototype Jewellery for Neil Marshalls -Doomsday(Warner Brothers)
From one piece in which i designed for Doomsday, was a belt made from an old Cam belt, I kept it for myself, and concluded, it as being a tangible product, I set out to come up with a brand name and develop a brand identity for that product idea,
I currently am the Creative director of ChangeRoom- Recycled design Concepts-
ChangeRoom is a brand that Designs and Makes beautiful aesthetically pleasing pieces from found objects and recycled material.
