I am more a tinkerer and a generalist than an individual with specialized interests. I navigate around and explore diverse design disciplines with my skills primarily rooted in architecture. 

Whatever the discipline be, I gravitate towards a hands-on approach, materiality, interactive mediums and applications, form and making.

A question that I often ruminate on, 

Is Architecture a subset of design or design a subset of Architecture ? and when does either become art ?
