About this site

Independent architect, registered in Germany and the UK, based in Berlin. Current work treats computation as an instrument for designing rooms: simplified models of acoustic behaviour and the gap between simulation and physical rooms. The practice is research-led rather than client-led. It follows thirteen years at Zaha Hadid Architects, including as Project Architect for Leeza SOHO in Beijing from competition through construction. Graduate study in Audiocommunication and Physical Engineering Sciences at TU Berlin now supplies the acoustic and numerical basis for that work. The question is no longer how to produce complex geometry, but how geometry, material and construction can be developed through physical behaviour that can be modelled, made and heard.
