Learn a domain.
Make something of it.

Outside my professional role, my projects show the same approach: explore, understand and build. Here is what they make tangible.

Personal projects and volunteer contributions, with no commercial activity.

Facade of the completed passive house

Enter an unfamiliar domain.

Starting with no building experience, I learned Revit, drew plans, submitted the permit without an architect and coordinated around twenty work packages. The house shows how learning became a completed project.

Observe. Then make it readable.

The journals bring together routes, photographs and observations from the field. I built a globe and maps so readers can find their way through the story.

What this shows: organise real material, choose the level of detail and design an interaction that supports reading. I do not present this as professional experience.
