Everything I've done started with the same impulse: make something, anything, and let the artefact tell you what it wants to be.

I grew up making sense of the world through drawing, sketching things out before I knew what I thought about them. That instinct is probably what pulled me toward architecture, where I understood that the tools you reach for shape what you're able to imagine. Draw with a pen that bleeds and you learn to commit to your strokes. Draw on an iPad and the software smooths your lines into curves before you've decided what they are. The tool is always part of the thinking.
