About me and my work

I am an industrial design professional born in Saint Petersburg (Russia) and currently living and working in Vilnius (Lithuania). From the early days I have been amazed by the technology, creating objects and designing processes, always seeking for the balance between art and engineering. Design for me is not a just a profession – it is a way of living. It is a way of seeing and understanding things. The life of constant creation process and problem-solving. The way between ugliness and beauty, pain and comfort, problem and solution, idea and final product.
