I  grew up in a house where design was spoken fluently. One parent Indonesian, one American, both working in architecture and furniture design. 

 

I was drawing before I could walk, and I never really stopped. Alongside my design practice, I continue to paint and draw. It is not separate from what I do. When I sit at the design table developing CAD drawings or constructing 3D renderings,  I bring the same attention and vulnerability I would to a canvas.

 

I am currently completing my industrial design training at Central Saint Martins. My work is grounded in structure, usability, and the realities of production. Within my practice, function and beauty are not opposing forces. The practical and the emotional arrive together; each object is conceived as a vessel for meaning and connection.
