I create design interventions that play with our society.


I aim to provoke and then to reconcile. Examining the current trajectories of the world and speculating on outcomes, I look at existing designs and question whether they are desirable for the society.


I am developing a gambling shop to provide a critical solution to social problems that arise from a lack of community. The shop uses an existing system of pleasure–reward–play and addiction as a vehicle for design.
