Profile

With a Ph.D. in the form and structure of architecture, my research and teaching blend design creativity with the methodological rigour of engineering. My academic journey began with a deep dive into the geometric principles of origami and bar linkages, uncovering their potential for adaptive architectural systems. This foundation evolved into a broader investigation of how geometry shapes both the design process and outcomes, particularly as construction details increasingly influence architectural innovation. Today, my work integrates experimental approaches and computational tools to develop adaptive and material-efficient solutions, including masonry systems, modular assemblies, and adaptive structures. Recent highlights of my work are available at weblink
