About

Passionate about innovation, I relentlessly pursue creative solutions and am unafraid to experiment until achieving optimal design. My dedication to excellence is reflected in my exceptional execution and professional competence, continually enhanced through self-improvement efforts such as media engagement and case study analysis.Valuing interdisciplinary collaboration, I excel in orchestrating collective expertise to deliver outstanding results. I approach design with a discerning eye, refining concepts to meet diverse needs while maintaining artistic integrity. As an avid traveler, I draw inspiration from diverse cultures and landscapes, enriching my design practice.

Order and Disorder - Museum of Waste (Factory, Exhibition, Laboratory)

I am trying to find a balance and critical mass in the long-term confrontation and dependence of mankind and nature. The problem of waste disposal has always been a matter of thought and research. Similarly, waste disposal is a big problem in the UK. Do we choose to continue to fight against nature? Concession? Or compromise? No. I believe that a sustainable development strategy is the most favorable. Organizing the collection of waste from all over the city into recycling plants is a form of order and disorder. Raising the awareness of the population about sustainability is also a form of order and disorder. Recycling materials from old buildings is part of the strategy in terms of REUSE. A visualization of the recycling system as well as a narrative navigation is very appealing and innovative. The transparent look of a machine shop situated in well-equipped East London is an interesting assumption. A state where people with different identities are in the same space and do not intrude on each other, yet are able to create subtle interactions—another kind of order and disorder. The combination of the laboratory and factory on the top floor is a risky and daring experiment, using treated waste as research material to start a series of interpretations of sustainability. My exploration retains all the columns and structures of the original building, but removes and blurs the sense of boundaries between the building and the outside space, hoping to inspire people that human behavior is part of nature and that we should come to terms with it, rather than claiming and fighting it.
