I am a designer with a passion for creating environments that connects people through storytelling. Environments that combine atmosphere and identity through materiality and distinctiveness. I enjoy experimenting with new ideas and am always seeking to find inspiration from my environments. I am deeply enthusiastic about design and bring an energetic approach to every project. It is very important for me that a project feels authentic and personal. Therefore, I am invested in making every detail count. I am deeply engaged in doing research and finding unique pieces for every environment. I also find it highly valuable to be a part of the prosess of making the graphic design and layout for the visual direction of the project. I combine hand drawing, sketching, research and visual inspiration in my design process.
