ABOUT ME

My passion lies in the intersection of us human beings and the spaces we inhabit. With a steady commitment to detail and an insatiable curiosity and drive for experimentation I have dedicated my career to exploring the relationship between modalities of space, perception and consciousness. As both an architect and university professor, I am devoted to deepening my understanding of these concepts and using them to create environments that inspire and uplift the human spirit.

I am an architect with a background in both academia and industry, actively engaged in practice, teaching and research. I received my Masters and PhD degrees from the Vienna University of Technology (TU Vienna), where I focused on architectural theory, experimentation with various media, and design methods.

A large body of my research considers aspects and modalities of the phenomenon of visuality in relation to spatial concepts of the modernist era, transparency and new urban and social structures. Changing interfaces between spaces of inside and outside and their implications on social life and developments of human environments, have been associated with visual perception and processing of space, as a fundamental aspect of the mind.

I am passionate about interdisciplinary approaches to design and a special focus has been engaging in the fascinating relation and dynamics between film and architecture, overlapping with concepts of poetry, image theory, virtual realities, and the perception and manipulation of space.

With more than a decade of experience as university professor engaging and guiding curious minds of the next generation architects and designers, I have worked on research and design proposals in various parts of the world, such as in Paris, Tehran, Dubai and Vienna.

Combining academic insight, practical experience, and a broad research interest, my goal is to constantly explore novel ideas on the diverse concepts of space and their intricate influence on human existence.

I invite you to take a look at my work, and hopefully you will find inspiration and fuel your imagination.
