Design is fundamentally about service—creating functionality to meet needs. Whether it’s caring for parents, raising children, cooking, or doing household chores, good service-oriented design comes from love at its core. My work seeks to embody a state of purity, a spiritual resonance.
This purity reflects an alignment of one’s inner nature with the impermanence of the world, a harmonious integration with all things. It is boundless, naturally unfolding without deliberate planning—like the silent yet powerful waters beneath the ocean, or the embrace of a father: reliable and warm.
I call this spiritually driven work "Land Design."
