For me, reading is like having a fantastic meal and good conversation with my best friend, no beginning, no ending and unique. By designing my own books, I am able to enjoy my life more. I am not just trying to communicate with myself (by using my own language). I can completely lose my sense of reading and perceiving words and let my imagination go wild. It's beyond the world of Graphic Design I have known. It is a place without boundaries and that's always been the world I've wanted to explore my whole life.
