Most of his recent projects are good examples of the creativity he has and what he can do as a person who enjoys building new things from simple ideas with the consecutive application of art in any shape. These objects (2-D & 3-D) are both, theoretical and practical evaluation with the concern of energy efficiency, ecological sound and cost-effectiveness on how can he make them desirable for the human eye, as well as leaving the least amount of footprint in our environment.
