I am Belgian designer, with an educational background in Civil Engineering and Architecture. I hold both a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in these fields, complemented by a Postgraduate in Furniture Design.
I am a young architect fascinated by the city dynamic, dedicated to contribute my part in the liveliness of our urban fabric, professionally as well as a user. On the one hand, I see it as my purpose to design architecture towards vibrant encounters with the world around us. On the other, I see it as my duty to experience this lively reality, to enjoy and be inspired. I love sharing these inspirations with the community on this website.
Her design approach is based on continuous personal interaction with clients, technicians, materials...She focuses on product design, exhibition design, art direction and interiors.
