A birdwatcher, passionate amateur adventurer, designer and artist, focused on Design for Living Nature & Design for the Everyday.

In all of my work I try to harbour the development of sensitivity.

‘Design for Living Nature’ is about the reality of living in entanglement with multiple species in crowded spaces & Finding deep experiences of being part of the surrounding landscape amidst our animal neighbours, even when we don't have access to a remote and vast wilderness.

‘Design for the Everyday’ tackles the challenge of finding richness in the mundane details of everyday life.
