Hey there, this is the place

Just do it.
Over the last ten years or so, I’ve made a habit of maintaining at least one side project at any given moment. Those side projects have served a couple of purposes:
01 - Learn new things : Trying out a new technology, a new field, or learning a new skill.
02 - Build something : It’s nice and fulfilling when you can show your product to others, or take a look at something and know you’re the one that created it.
03 - Refreshing : It’s a great way to get out of your comfort zone and do something different from your day job.

Haiku art
My humble try to illustrate haiku poems. I have always been drawn
by haiku poetry being fascinated by its power to communicate
that particular moment in time, and a sense of sudden illumination
or enlightenment, despite its simplicity. The perfect illustration of
"Be here, now" - live the moment and the moment only...

New Zealand
National Flag.
In 2015, New Zealanders were asked to consider and share their
thoughts on the qualities that distinguished the country, and how
its culture and values could best be portrayed in a new flag design.
In May that year, the 12-strong panel challenged New Zealanders
to suggest their own designs to replace the country's existing flag,
which was created in 1869 and officially adopted in 1902.
So, I came up with this concept.

Kumo Taiko
Noticing they were still using a marker pen to brand their
bachis, I teamed up with the Kumo team to design their first
hanko + van + uniform as a small reward for their teachings.
It was a fun collaboration, they are very open-to-new-ideas guys.

Aroha Toki
This is my son's Toki. In Te Reo Maori, Aroha is the word for love.
The Toki (adze) was a chisel tool used by the Māori people of Aotearoa
(New Zealand) to carve their great canoes and carved detailing on their
meeting houses. A symbol of courage and strength in times of adversity,
Toki was worn by Māori elders as a symbol of power, wisdom
and authority. You cannot simply buy one, it needs to be gifted to you
by someone else. Photo credit: Mountain Jade New Zealand.

Aur'a gold water
Package design - Case Study. "Since ancient times the local people from
Romania in the area of Transylvania were more active, healthier and
happier. This was a mystery as well as an assumption they might have
discovered miracle water, the springs of holy wells. Aur’a is the association
of two Latin words expressing its precious content. “Aur” comes from the
Latin “Aurum” which means Gold and “a” the letter following the
apostrophe stands for the Latin “Argentum” meaning Silver. Nevertheless
“Aur’a” symbolise the body aura as well, which according to New Age
beliefs is a human energy field, a coloured emanation said to enclose a
human body."
