Form (un)follows Function
2025 Article
If design were a religion, its first prophecy would be "Form follows function."As a designer, I’ve heard this mantra countless times, but I never really questioned its origins or context. But form follows function isn’t just about design being dictated by purpose—it also implies that if form follows function, the result is inherently "good design." If not, it’s "bad design."

Touching Digital
2025 Article
The journey of exploring tactile interactions with digital products is less about replacing what works and more about imagining what could be. Physical, tactile interactions can offer a richness and depth that digital interfaces often lack—a way to connect with our devices that feels more human.

Expand Your Design Vocabulary

I often think of design tools and skills as a "vocabulary." The more diverse and expansive your vocabulary, the more versatile and effective you become as a designer.

Love Your Tools
2024 Article
Quite often, I hear photographers say that the gear is not important for capturing great photos; it's all about how you take pictures. This is true to some degree. You can potentially use any type of camera to get a great shot one way or another. But in my case, the gear is super important. It’s not about the megapixels, the brand, or having the latest and most robust version of the camera. It’s about having a camera you genuinely enjoy using.

Encyclopedias & Fear of Density
2024 Article
While regular books tended to be one-time reads for me – once I got the story, that was it – encyclopedias held a different allure. I found myself picking them up regularly, flipping to a random page, and getting lost for hours. Another weakness of mine was illustrated atlases. Now that I reflect on it, it feels like my first encounter with graphic design, even though I didn't really know what graphic design was back then. The way information was laid out and presented felt utterly captivating and almost magical.

Deciphering Graphic Language of Safety Gloves
2023 Article
I snapped a photo of the glove and forwarded it to my friend, a seasoned construction worker, inquiring if he knew what any of those symbols meant. His response was swift and decisive—he had no idea. So maybe not for fellow designers who are interested in why things look the way they look, but for my one friend who has been in construction for 20-something years, I decided to go down the rabbit hole of deciphering all this information. I won't deny it—I briefly felt like Indiana Jones, deciphering ancient hieroglyphs on a weathered wall for a few moments last week.

UFO Flashbacks
2023 Article
Yesterday, I read a chapter titled "Futuro: Flashback: The Prefab from Another Planet" from the book "Top This and Other Parables of Design" by Phil Patton. In this text, originally written by Phil for The New York Times in 2005, he looked into the UFO-like houses found in the US. Firstly, the word "flashback" already appears in the chapter title, and I had no idea it would actually lead to a flashback from my childhood.

The Art of Moving Buildings
2016 Article
Buildings that are lost in all the city noise, people, tourists, traffic. Buildings that are now covered in street signs, or ugly pharmacy branding that is located on the first floor. Now imagine those buildings “restored” to it’s original design, with clean facade, no garbage, no scaffolding and on top of that they are now somewhere else, somewhere very far.
