I Can Make (Almost) Anything

In 2012 I have decided to follow a new personal and professional horizon, choosing to experience an oldish (but never dissipated) passion, starting my bachelor of architecture. Curiously, but on a certain way suitable, this decision synthesized and efficiently connected my own previous experiences as a ballet dancer, fashion model, entrepreneur, journalist, and mother, which trajectories could be translated as a continuous pursue of a form harmony, a physical expression, a grace interpretation.
Belas Artes University in São Paulo seemed as the right venue to attach a design sense to an art atmosphere. During the last 3 years I have encouraged my interest through distinct assignments, from a shelter design in the desert of Atacama, Chile, having the nature forces of sun and wind as major instruments of creation/development, to a 150-unit affordable housing condominium in a very underprivileged region of Brazil, to a gathering place for students sitting on an elevated infrastructure on a very dense urban area.
Now my goal is to develop in FabLab skills in areas that I know...nothing.
Digital fabrication is an opportunity to put my ideas into practice and make my sketches to create wings and become real solutions.
