Mass production, which today should be taken into consideration as a basis for modern architecture, exists in nature itself and, intuitively, in popular work. ― Lina Bo Bardi.

ABOUT

What I do

I tell and express stories through strong, thoughtful design.

BACKGROUND & HISTORY

I’ve been telling stories through film composition and screenwriting, photography and now I am learning through design and architecture, as well as sound.

APPROACH

I believe good design and great stories have as much of an impact on the designer and storyteller as much as on the consumer. My philosophy is that this starts with an understanding of history and context. I ask questions, listen closely, and build designs that feel as good as they look.
