Growing up just outside the ancient city of Kyoto, I have been both a spectator and an appreciator of enchanting Japanese architecture and the inherent link between interiors and nature.
A traditional concept which has inspired my own practise is viewing windows as picture frames; the view outside is considered as painting or image and is an important part of the design.
In a crowded city like London I like to pay homage to the the natural areas around us (such as our gardens), so that whether you are sitting down for work or eating breakfast, you are greeted by nature without the need to go outside.
