These works are material studies and explorations developed outside of commissioned projects. Free from the constraints, each piece investigates form, structure, and fabrication techniques through an iterative, hands-on process. The studies serve as a testing ground for ideas, examining how materials behave, connect, and express movement or tension at various scales. While exploratory in nature, this body of work informs and influences larger public and architectural projects, shaping both the formal language and technical approach of built work.
