- For
- People hiring or studying commercial design
- Worth noticing
- The portfolio links a nine-metre pavilion to a magnet-organised surface experiment.
Field notes
The portfolio frames commercial design as a coordination problem as well as a visual one, drawing on workplace interiors, BIM, project management, and building-performance studies. Its research examples include a pavilion generated from mapped magnet arrangements and a daylight-optimized meditation pavilion with skylights tilted eighty degrees north. The biography supplies a clear through-line from construction sites in India to commercial practice in Ottawa.
