What I do?

Multisensory Technology & Research

Driven by a passion to understand how we perceive the world around us, I am running interdisciplinary projects creating new interfaces between the human senses and technology, with a focus on olfaction. Together with artist and researcher Sissel Tolaas, Re_Search Lab in Berlin, we create multisensory technologies and olfactory experiences for innovation-driven industries, art installations in museums worldwide and for innovative brands.

Spatial Design, Architecture & Research

My current academic focus in the field of architecture and urbanism is on researching the cross-section of political philosophy and urban studies.
As scenographer and Architect, I create immersive museum experiences, opera staging and create temporary architectures for international conferences and events. I hold an MA in Architecture & Historic Urban Environment from the Bartlett School of Architecture at UCL London where I am engaged as a guest critic for MA students as well as that the Academy of Arts & Design in Basel/Switzerland on corporate and retail scenography.

Communication and Corporate Narration

I create corporate narratives: as the personal speechwriter for C-Suite management of global corporations and politicians and as a senior consultant, I create corporate narratives for companies and individuals trying to communicate challenging change processes, courageous agendas or radical innovations to global audiences.

Brand Strategy & Art Direction

As the founder of a London-based design agency, I combine the fields of design, communication, and technology to advise or create meaningful international brands in various industries from tech to finance, from fashion to media. With an entrepreneurial spirit as founders, we embed design and corporate storytelling within the core of company strategy.
