ABOUT ME
Architecture, for me, was more than just a couple of study courses and a degree. Over the past years, it became my habit, my life, my style, and above all of that, my passion. I know an architect as an artist with an ocean of knowledge, from literature and Cinema to Fabric, Style, Plants, technology, and so on.
I have seen in the past years how this multi and inter- disciplinary view has made me a jack-of-all-trades. In addition, my friends know me best for being detail- oriented, design-loving, and cinephile.

I founded the Fractal Art Studio in the last year of my undergraduate program. The initial idea was to design engineeringly. It might sound like industrial design, and though it definitely is, it also embraces conceptual and abstract art. The aim is to "create" and to make the unuseful useful (the definition of art to me). Fractal Art Studio works at various scales, from small products to building designs. Please visit my website for further details.
