About 

Dynamism | Integrity | Passion about design and whatever enhaces the perception of creativity and communnication

The basic principle of every project is the integrity and the 'haptic reality' that follows the idea. The utilization of a notion reacts as a truth and honesty of the physical devices and materials. This is where the integrity break the link between passion and obligaton. This is where the creator is called to define 'coherent truth', regardless the medium and the time. 

A sparkle needs to be an idea. An idea wants to be depicted. The depiction asks for development/utilization in order to have a 'haptic perception'. This perception would not be succeded without a sequence of actions...
