A 2024 graduate of OCAD University in Environmental Design, my creativity draws inspiration from a deep desire to understand and interact with the environment. Design is not only about creating space but also about building bridges between experiences and emotions.
In my design journey, I believe that the power of design can go beyond visual shock and reach the deepest part of the human heart. I hold myself to the highest moral standards for each project, while not forgetting my original intention: to create works that resonate with people and leave a lasting impression on everyday life. ords.design is a platform to show my design and design thinking - the lines and textures of every corner show my love for life and adherence to the essence of design.
