My experimental project was born out of the desire to create new objects that challenge our existing perceptions. I often question why we cling to archetypes when technology is becoming increasingly intangible, enabling us to deconstruct objects and redesign them anew.

The search for languages of form that will expand our cultural vocabulary should be leading innovation and not following it.
