I have a deep believe that every individual is strongly influenced by their experiences and environment while growing up. Therefore, I find joy and meaning if objects designed can illuminate new perspectives towards what we have grown familiar with and subconsciously accept around us. In turn, nudging users to adopt different behaviours from their familiar routines that positive the well-being of oneself.
