About
I am very much interested in design theory sociology, and behavioural psychology, thus resulting in mostly psychological approach during my design process, which focuses mostly on human centered design.
My interest as both a designer and a graffiti artist often allows me to view things in a different light. There are boundaries in both fields that we do not cross, yet these boundaries constantly challenge me to find a way to bind these 2 fields together, with a clear distinction whether I'm designing a product with graffiti influence, or instilling my design knowledge into my graffiti artworks. -
