“I love being challenged by the possibilities of elegant solutions by going back to basics and observing nature’s way of overcoming its functional and structural obstacles; and then I go back to the office and implement my learning and observations into my work. Like nature, architectural designs contain solutions that embrace, boost or stimulate people living in that space”.
