My mission is to design for sustainability (and naively save the planet). I want to keep pushing the sustainable agenda and use my multidisciplinary skills in my design practice to create designs from and with living organisms and materials in a collaborative manner with respect to all species. I dream of developing the design practice to fit the future.
