my name is alexis and this is my master's portfolio
PI&V
I define myself as a design engineer whose practice is driven by analytical rigour, creative curiosity, and a collaborative way of working. Growing up in a close-knit community and interacting with people from different cultures shaped who I am as a person, whereas my professional identity is being formed through an ongoing negotiation between the untapped potential of materials and their environmental impact. Starting with scientific disciplines such as mathematics, physics, and computer science, and leading to the exploratory nature of material-driven design, allowing me to operate fluently between conceptual reasoning and hands-on implementation [1].
Development
My initial passion for maths and science, combined with industrial design, particularly material exploration and sustainable practices, defines the direction of my future work. Sustainable digital fabrication sits at the intersection of these interests, where engaging with other disciplines becomes a practical way to expand material exploration and experimentation within industrial design [19].
