I As a designer, I enjoy imagining spaces that create curiosity and effectively tell a story. I aim to foster a conversation and create memorable user experiences by immersing people in a space that is both beautiful and functional. Inspiration while designing often comes from art, nature, and the idea of multi-sensory experiences. While working with clients, I find it’s important to listen to their needs, ask questions, and do research in order to develop solutions that will be successful.
One of my favorite architects, Carlo Scarpa, believed that displaying art, museografia, is an art itself and I believe the beauty of exhibition design is the rhythm created for the user’s experience, much like a dance.
I am fascinated by how we can escape through space and connect with our environments and I aspire to innovate and design for a more sustainable and inclusive future.
On my own, I continue research to explore concepts like: how to represent different learning styles and how do people experience and hold memories? What resonates with people as individuals in a society where information is overloaded? What is the role of educational exhibits for the future of conveying and holding knowledge?
