my focus as a designer 

I am always inspired by the way Virtual worlds and physical worlds collide and evolve in films and games. With the way to digitization paved by constantly evolving technologies we are moving ever faster into experiences never felt before. I want to explore this curious mix of digital and physical worlds take us into a true symbiosis  where the two are not quite very different and not quite the same.

my motivation to take part in the International Design School 2013

As we move forward into the future we are faced with many questions. Some keep us awake lone until the hours of dawn, some are answered quickly, some never and yet even more that affect humanity without even being asked. I want to be apart of the ever increasing global network of people who can change to understand people, to share their stories, their lives, to bring  a positive change one day at a time

Hey guys ! It’s only a day before we travel! Since we are all going on the same flight, we’ll meet at the boarding gates, I hope you have all your documents and the projects.

If you guys like Alphonse Mucha ( the guy responsible for the Art nuveau movement), there is an exhibition of his poster art and manga at the Museum Bellerive.  And the last day being Sunday, I think it is a pretty good shot at getting to see some original prints!

Here’s the link ! check it out!
