Instagram I design objects—from tableware to furniture, and potentially to the scale of public art.

An object is rarely shaped by one value alone. It is an integration of various factors, including an object’s formal qualities, its perception within its surroundings, its tangibility, its social and cultural interpretation, and its expression. I therefore emphasize the relational value of an object, using design as an active analytical tool for continuous reflection.

Through a relational perspective, I am particularly interested in an object’s form: how does the form of an object—through its shape, color, material, and various tangible and intangible expressions—communicate its identity in a way that is accessible, understandable, and perceivable to both its environment and its users? I design with these questions in mind, committed to offering a unique perspective to the world.
