IMAGINE
Imagining the future whilst drawing. The variety of possibilities in the design process enables to unfold in different directions. Key for me are innovative, inclusive and activating concepts. The beauty of telling a story with a design or even a manifesto to evoke change, keeps me ever fascinated. The art of sketching a complex narrative in a simple yet nuanced style, thrives me. It helps to involve stakeholders. My own interests in future scenarios, circularity and development of human being in its ecological context are ingredients to imagine even more.
