HELLO
As a first-generation student from a Hungarian family, my journey into design has been shaped by hard work and rich cultural experiences. Learning English and navigating a new landscape from a young age revealed the diverse perspectives that influence our interaction with spaces.
This belief in the power of culture and travel fuels my commitment to design. Balancing three jobs during college allowed me to support myself while pursuing two study abroad experiences and different state internships, deepening my understanding of meaningful spaces and highlighting that thoughtful design stems from the diverse experiences of those who inhabit them.
Working as an art curator in Florence and collaborating with Italian designers reinforced how cultures and histories impact our well-being, further strengthening my passion for creating spaces that function well and resonate with the human experience. .
To me, design is a way to express passion, creativity, and individuality. It’s a flexible process that aligns naturally with my values, transforming any space into one filled with inspiration and possibility. My approach starts with in-depth research and a deep dive into the surroundings, allowing me to capture the true essence of the space.
I’m dedicated to creating designs that resonate with different people, often identifying opportunities for fresh ideas where they’re needed most. From there, I develop a strong concept that flows through every part of the project, ensuring a seamless experience for anyone who interacts with the space.

Grounded in the essential role of tools as the building blocks of our world, this three-story interactive library celebrates them through a series of cubic forms that stack and support one another, embodying both strength and interconnectedness. Each cube functions as a unique space, held up by structural elements—beams, columns, and adjacent cubes— forming an intricate, interlocking design. Like tools that rely on one another in daily life, these cubic forms create a dynamic architectural ensemble, where each element supports and elevates the next. This innovative structure invites visitors to explore the symbiotic relationship between tools and human life in an immersive, enriching experience
