Meet the Maker: Evan Walters

 

Q: Why did you decide to create a cutting board?

A: It’s a cutting board for myself because, while I’ve made a couple by now as gifts, I realized I had never made one for myself.

Q: What inspired your design? 

A: I was inspired by the Golden Ratio because I didn’t have a ton of wood to work with but I wanted to have a creative design. Being an ID Minor, they often mention trying to incorporate the Golden Ratio into designs and I thought it was a creative and fun twist for my design.
