Architecture
I understand architecture as a quiet yet profound cultural technique: it touches us not primarily through spectacle, but through atmosphere. As an architecture student, I do not seek form as an end in itself, but meaning in space – that elusive quality which cannot be measured, only felt.
Inspired by thinkers like Peter Zumthor, I believe in an architecture that arises from depth – from place, from material, from light, from memory. It is not created through addition, but through subtraction. In reduction, the essential is revealed: the interplay of construction and emotion, of structure and silence.
My projects often revolve around the idea of retreat – spaces that offer protection without closing themselves off. I am drawn to simple, adaptable systems that work with time, not against it. Spaces that do not impose, but resonate.
For me, material is not a means, but a being. Its texture, its scent, its aging tell stories – of time, of craft, of care. Architecture becomes meaningful when it enters into a relationship with these things – when it is not just built, but felt.
I enjoy working on the scale of the detail, where the large begins. Because every joint is a statement, every connection a small-scale design. I combine architectural theory and practice in a workshop mindset: for me, designing also means trying, failing, adjusting – with head, heart, and hand.
Art
My artistic work extends the same pursuit that guides my architectural thinking — a search for the essence of space.
Where architecture builds atmosphere through material and proportion, my images construct it through light, color, and silence.
In the Meditations series, geometry becomes thought.
Each composition explores the tension between structure and emptiness, between the artificial and the organic.
The works are not depictions of space, but reflections on its nature — on how presence, void, and perception coexist.
I understand image-making as a form of spatial thinking.
Every surface becomes a threshold; every color, a vibration of emotion.
Through reduction, I try to uncover what remains when function disappears — the quiet resonance of form itself.
