What i do

Sea Play -
SparkLab, Queensland Museum

Sea Play is an exhibition consisting of miniature ecosystems, with big, fun 
interactive coral objects scattered around the exhibition space for kids to 
explore and discover intuitively.

 

Drawing inspiration from exhibitions from Amsterdam’s Museum of Modern Art and teamLab, these ecosystems consist of small, climbable reefs that are lit up by projectors from the ceiling. The design aims to stimulate, educate and, most importantly, be a fun experience using several STEM technologies in relation to interactive design.

Co-Housing -
Torino, Italy

In 2019, whilst on exchange in Turin, Italy, I participated in a master’s course focused on architecture and economics. The unit delved in the similarities of the city in Italy I was living in (Turin) and a city of relative scale and character in China (Nanjing). 

 

Focussing on the development in Turin, with the core idea to deliver public, communal and private spaces that allow immigrants or refugees to better integrate into an existing community.
