My teaching grows directly out of my design practice and ongoing interest in material, technology and process. I approach learning as an open and collaborative space shaped by experimentation, critical thinking and the development of individual creative positions.
My courses focus on digital technologies, conceptual development and project-based design processes. Through experimentation and making, students are encouraged to develop technical confidence alongside an individual design approach while reflecting on material, production and contemporary design practice.
The teaching formats range from introductory Digital Technologies courses to project-based formats exploring conceptual development, digital fabrication and contemporary production methods. These courses were taught within the Design department and Applied Art and Design program at the Peter Behrens School of Arts, Hochschule Düsseldorf.
Rather than treating analogue and digital methods as separate disciplines, I approach them as interconnected tools within an evolving design process shaped by material understanding, iterative development and experimentation.
Recurring themes include serial production, sustainability, wearability and professional practice. Many projects are connected to real-world contexts of production, presentation and communication, encouraging students to think beyond isolated outcomes and engage with broader systems of design and use.
