Attitude:

I have a playful, imaginative and thoughtful approach to design. I believe that potential sources of enjoyment can be found anywhere and that all design should engage the end user in its development and construction. I have a passion for narrative architecture and the design of public spaces, with a particular interest in the way users appropriate and adapt the built environment. I especially enjoy model making as an integral part of the design process.
