About
I’m Christian Farrar, a passionate product designer with experience taking products from early concept to retail success, including selling tens of thousands of units through major retailers such as Smyths Toys. I specialise in maximising product potential through sketching, CAD (especially SolidWorks), design for manufacture (DFM), and hands-on product development, ensuring concepts are practical, cost-effective, and ready for production.
With my own 3D printing and prototyping facilities, I can quickly test, refine, and validate ideas. I also have fantastic relationships with over 20 factories across China and India, giving me valuable access to manufacturing expertise, competitive pricing, material sourcing, tooling, and production support. These relationships allow me to help bridge the gap between design and manufacturing, ensuring products move efficiently from concept to mass production.
Whether you need concept development, product refinement, prototyping, or a design ready for manufacture, I can tackle your brief with as much or as little input as you like.
