As an Interior Design student at LUCA School of Arts, I explore the societal impact design can have in an increasingly globalising world. My work is informed by research into recycled materials, sustainability and sociology, and is driven by a fascination with people and the ways they connect with one another. While grounded in research, my designs often carry a sense of playfulness, which is a reflection of my personality and my belief that spaces can invite curiosity, joy and interaction.
I am particularly interested in how relationships are formed and maintained, and in the emotions that shape our interactions. These themes play a central role in my practice and are reflected in my ambition as a designer to create spaces that bring people together.
Alongside my design work, my independent practice serves as a reflection of my inner world. Through it, I navigate and give form to the complex and often overwhelming emotions that ascend from my inner world.
