Spatial Designer & Creative Director

In an era of digital overload, our physical environment remains the last frontier of inner silence. My practice is not merely about decoration; it is about calibration. By harmonizing the geometry of a room, we create the physical conditions for the mind to settle.

The Architecture of Silence

Psychology suggests that sharp corners create subconscious visual tension, while organic curvature invites a sense of safety. My work involves auditing homes for these "hidden stressors." We replace harsh overhead lighting with low-level ambient sources (mimicking the campfire) to signal to the body's internal clock that it is time to unwind.
