About

Design-to-Production | Comp. Arch.

To bridge the gap between an amazing design and its physical manifestation, I develop Design-to-Production workflows (Python) applicable to any design with great robustness. I am specialized in Rhinoceros, Grasshopper, Revit and Dynamo with a touch on AR applications. 

I am a Chartered Computational Architect from Belgium with experience in Hong Kong, London, Cape Town and Zürich on a wide range of major complex geometry projects.

Let's meet soon!
