Equilibrium is the collective name for an ongoing series of bespoke projects designed and created by Designer Enameller Ruth Ball and Designer Maker Tom Sutton. Branching across the areas of jewellery, silverware and furniture, both designers will work on signature pieces for which they are both renowned, giving them new identities by combining their individual design approach. these exclusive
works will be available in limited quantities produced on a commission basis.

Alongside these exclusive collections, Ruth and Tom will also focus on new joint bespoke pieces of fine silverware which share common themes within both Designers' philosophies towards the creative process.

Tom Sutton's Aero-Organic approach to design embraces the positive elements within both the synthetic and natural word and produces works that demonstrate an awareness to sustainable design which maintain a distinctive contemporary identity with hand crafted discipline.

Ruth Ball has achieved worldwide recognition for her quality of enamelling skills and attention to detail. A published author she has demonstrated that she is an expert within the creative sector of contemporary Jewellery and Silverware.

Both designers share common interests within their creative influences and yet demonstrate different skills which complement each other and bring a natural balance to the work.

Ruth and Tom aim to work on further collective projects within the equilibrium initiative in future years.

They intend to launch their first pieces at Liverpool Design Festival later this year including a preview of their premier submission for the Goldsmiths Award 2011.

Tom recently exhibited at the Eco Design Show in Liverpool where he launched new designs. It was a great opportunity to see and discuss his beautifully designed and crafted products.
