My Skills

I work at the intersection of interior design and architecture, which gives me a broader and more flexible approach to design. As I’m active in both fields, my work moves between technical and creative aspects, ranging from 2D drawings and 3D models to physical model-making, collages and sketches.

I especially enjoy working with natural materials and experimenting with different ways of expressing ideas, through hand sketches, collages and tactile models, not just digital renderings. While I can create clean 3D visualizations, I’m more drawn to the creative process: developing concepts that feel honest, unique and a bit more handmade rather than overly polished or artificial.

Technical Drawings

I am proficient in producing 2D architectural drawings, building 3D models and creating rendered and graphical visualizations. I work fluently with software such as Archicad, Lumion, Procreate, Adobe Photoshop and integrate these tools seamlessly throughout my design workflow.

Modell Making

I have extensive experience in physical model making, using a wide range of materials such as wood, cardboard, clay, and plaster. I value this tactile process for its ability to explore spatial ideas in a tangible and experimental way.

Hand Sketches & Visual Collages

Drawing by hand, especially digitally on the iPad using Procreate, is one of my strongest tools. I believe hand-drawn elements bring a personal and emotional quality to design work that enhances the narrative. I also enjoy creating visual collages, combining materials, imagery and atmosphere to communicate concepts and spatial moods intuitively.
