“Just as one cannot deny the impact politics has on life, one cannot deny the inspiration design has either.”
It is difficult for me to separate politics from what I create, as design is about life, and politics the same. Just as one cannot deny the impact politics has on life, one cannot deny the inspiration design has either.
To live an inspired life is to embrace all its facets, the good, the bad and the necessity of beauty.

I’m inspired by my surroundings, by all that brings me wonder and joy. The things that nourish my body and stretch my mind, leave me awestruck and determined to find a better way.

It is not enough for me to follow the usual path, though overwhelm sometimes has its way with me, leaving me wondering if what I seek is truly accessible.

“This may come across as a bit naive, but science has proven the facts: what we think about we bring about, what we design, designs us.”
I believe in what the creative mind can do, despite this era of challenge. It is a mindset I choose and a way of life that feels most affective. This may come across as a bit naive, but science has proven the facts: what we think about we bring about, what we design, designs us.
