I feel that vehicle design has taken me as a designer closer to sculpture and architecture. For me, vehicles are emotional motion architecture, and fundamentally about subtleness, balance and impression. I have been very interested in the journey itself and product semiotics in vehicle design. Time at the Royal College of Art has clarified my passion for vehicle design and I look forward to working in the automotive industry.
I believe in process, trial and error. I have always been extremely enthusiastic about exploring different methods in design and developing insights to ideas by testing.
