Grounded by design
Grounded by Design explores architectural flooring as a foundation for space-making. Through deliberate material selection, scale, and detail, I shape how spaces are experienced, used, and remembered.
Each project treats flooring as a strategic foundation—integrating material knowledge, performance, and design intent.
