Ben will be a junior next year, and already has significant amount of hands-on experience designing interior spaces. Although he primarily considers himself a fine artist, he's excited to he's learning a combination of math and aesthetic.
When I was younger, I was crafty— I'd put things together with glue and create collages. Over time it’s developed into more of a defined passion in the fine arts. It definitely comes from my dad’s side of the family.
He flips homes on the market and I get to work on them with him. The last one he completed, I designed the entire kitchen and the second floor. The finishing touches on the color are usually still up to him, but he asks for my input on those decisions as well. The actual layout was my job.
I love coming here because I can learn about architecture through the lense of mathematical concepts. At EXPLO, I also get to immerse myself in interior design. That's where I find my true calling. I can explore materials and colors in much more of an in-depth level.
