Three ways to move
Every passage leads somewhere.
Navigate
Use the bottom rail to move between chambers.
Witness
If the path pauses, stay with it. Step inside the work while the next passage prepares.

Kindling
The cannabis industry defaulted to dark and clinical. Kindling needed to go the opposite direction โ building trust through clarity.
About this space
The journey is the design.
Dravidian architecture was built on one idea โ that a space should do more than shelter. Every threshold, every corridor, every carved detail was designed to create a specific experience as you moved through it. The journey was the design.
That thinking shaped how I see everything. This portfolio follows the same logic โ not a website, but a world. Each project is a space within it. Each space has a story. And the story is always the point.
Brahmi script
The world begins in it.
The characters you see are not decorative. They are Brahmi โ one of the oldest writing systems ever recorded, and the ancestor of Tamil and most South Asian scripts that followed. Every glyph that dissolves into English as you cross a threshold, every mark on the navigation rail โ real, living script. This world begins in it.

About me
I believe everything is a story. If you can't find it, your work will lose the essence it was meant to have.
I design through that lens โ thinking in systems, building with intention, shaped by both craft and a culture where architecture was the highest form of storytelling.
Based in Illinois. Usually building alongside Luna and Krypto โ my two furbabies, who have very strong opinions about deadlines.
