Heeyyyy......This is a story of my skillful journey in Architecture.....
The Pursuit of Architecture has opened my door to the world of creativity and innovation, where my passion for computational design and animation ignited. To me, Architecture is not just a roof over the head but also tying three different souls together, the soul of nature, the soul of the habitat to be crafted, and the soul of the habitants, creating a delicate story of life. But computational adaptability over the process of architecture is an extreme necessity to blend the souls and create harmony.
So, I’m seeking to computationally bring the above to fruition in both digital and physical world by entering into the realm of the gaming and animation industry in order to follow my passion for creating an ethereal and narrative driven architecture and environment. My insatiable desire to tackle challenges by learning new techniques and solving them computationally is a base drive of my passion.
I also have the desire to one day materialize this ethereal architecture with the aid of cutting-edge digital fabrication methods.
