My goal is to create a framework for a good and interesting life. I strive to improve the quality of life by creating interesting spaces to experience through the means of lighting and art, and by designing practical objects while respecting nature and utilizing an artistic vision. I am a versatile designer, wood craftsman and artist. I approach design with the nature and properties of the materials first, and I try to bring out their best aspects by using the right machining methods and selecting them for suitable locations. Arts, design, natural materials and constantly learning new things are my passions. I enjoy the multi-sensory experience and exploration of nature, the built environment and culture. Inspired by the changing relationships of free nature, urban landscapes and abandoned places.

In product design and manufacturing, my background is in wooden furniture and utility items, but I have also expanded my design to other materials, such as ceramics and glass. At the moment, I am particularly interested in lighting design. In space planning and building visual elements, I have been involved in event, exhibition, TV, film, theater and festival productions. I think technological know-how in design, combining digital tools with artisanal skills and an understanding of the properties of materials in manufacturing are a valuable combination. With these skills, we can create the best solutions for life’s diverse challenges and opportunities.
