Design Philosophy

“This design is completely transparent, and I imagine it blending seamlessly into any environment as it essentially disappears into the background However it can gently light up and dim doven, giving the impression of something that breathes and feels alive. I often think about buildings in our cities-these buildings can sometimes feel cold and detached, creating a sense of distance from people But if it also has life, it is part of nature, allowing for such a possibility of interaction with it. Our cities could then become warm and emotional spaces rather than being dominated by cold, impersonal designs.”
