Sustainability
Designing with the environment in mind is at the core of my practice and part of an on-going research in terms of materials and methodology. My approach consists of:
- creating with a 'less is more' mindset from the beginning to reduce waste,
- prioritising natural materials,
- using what already exists where possible, for example by sourcing vintage or antique pieces rather than buying new,
- thinking of the after life of a display or exhibition, for it to be reused for another project or donated to a charity
