About

Architectural designer working where clear ideas meet precise execution — across sustainable architecture, landscape design, and building engineering.

With BIM and parametric tools, I shape human-centered spaces that feel calm, clear, and carefully built. I care about atmosphere, materials, and coordination, and I enjoy carrying a concept all the way from first sketch to reality.
