About 

Informed by the conversation between materials, tectonics, and processes;  I look to design provocatively optimistic experiences that question the boundaries of architecture, design, craft, and technology. My design ideologies are rooted in exploring the evolving patterns and changes in everyday life and  creating meaningful interactions between social and natural ecosystems across scales as a result of consequence than planning. For me, design is a way of breaking free from societal norms and a medium where one can continuously juxtapose oneself with respect to context.
