Personal Interests

Outside of my professional pursuits, I find inspiration in creating personalised collages and graphic art that reflect my unique perspective. Working with LEGO and other handcrafts allows me to explore design in a tangible way while cultivating patience and creativity. Through handcrafting, I enjoy experimenting with shape, space, colour and pattern, discovering new possibilities that only happen when working directly with my hands.

I am also passionate about “the art of noticing”, taking the time to capture photographs that show the subtle beauty of spaces, details and light in architecture.

Visiting museums is a favourite pastime, as it lets me explore how spaces are presented and how design can evoke emotion. Travelling the world has given me the opportunity to experience architecture through my own eyes, appreciating how culture and context shape design.

These hobbies not only enrich my life but also inform my work, keeping my designs authentic and full of character.
