A curious observer, networker, and architect, I design spaces and experiences where the people become an active participant in shaping the design of their environment.

Space can be a tool to fuel the creative process by encouraging and discouraging specific behaviors/actions and by creating venues for emotional expression and physical negotiation – the space can be designed to build excitement and inspire creativity. I have experimented with a systemic design approach based on simplicity, innovative schemas, playful and inspiring environments, bespoke solutions and ethical consciousness.

Creating a strong relationship between the architect, craftsman and others players, a constant dialogue between the vision and materials builds a more complex, sophisticated, rich and fun cosmos. I think that each design needs to show its paradoxical features, combining technique, manual skill, and invention.

To design the space, I use a method called Co-Design to define the multifarious and participatory approach. This approach acknowledges complexity and seeks not to simplify process and outcome, but to explore the series of unpredictable and surprising ideas that emerge from combining different inputs.

Furniture and space design play a critical role in determining how people behave and can have a huge positive effect on encouraging collaboration and serendipity.
