Social & Experiential Design: Creative Projects for Interaction & Introspection

Social & Experiential Design

CREATIVE PROJECTS FOR
INTERACTION & INTROSPECTION

The goal of this work is to enrich ordinary environments with meaningful spatial experiences.

To improve social interaction. To raise the kind of curiosity that leads to independent learning. To infuse art into the everyday, integrating it into the built environment from the conceptual level up to form and details. All while respecting nature – the human spirit, its psychology, its senses – and all living things which make up our ecosystem.

In a lush green park with bricks seemingly floating in the air at various heights, an old man holding a plastic bag reads the text painted on one of the bricks, while standing facing away from the camera.

PROJECTS

“All projects” is a small sample of decades of design work. Many projects are excluded because they are either redundant, confidential, not on track with current design focus, or too small an exercise. Please contact me if you would like to see more samples of a particular type of project.

Potential projects range from retail + entertainment design, to classrooms and wellness centers, to wayfinding, to the design of community spaces – interior and exterior – to space programming, masterplanning, spatial branding, color studies… the range is quite large. What they have in common is that they are all based on sound SPATIAL DESIGN.
