Teaching
Innovation, research and design research are three fundamental interests. Goals include exploring alternatives to current design methods and simplifying the understanding of visual communication.
In teaching, he strives to help students understand the importance of both methodology and conceptual interpretations of design, to allow them to build strategies to articulate design statements both critically and personally.
He sees theory as key to building design discourses that integrate human experience to social environment, and help surmount technical problems in resolving projects.
