Growing up, I was always curious about how things worked and how I could build something new.
It's no wonder that at age 7, I received my own toolbox as a birthday present,
and by age 8, I was under the sink with my father, trying to understand how a trap works.

This natural interest has now been translated into my work. I love to work experimentally with a material and use their characteristics in my design. This results in three-dimensional products with a focus on detail.
How an object will be perceived is very important to me, which is why I take textures,
movement and reflections into consideration before even thinking about colors.
Interaction and engagement create a closer bond with the object.
