My background is an Architect and Interior designer. I make design for a living. My passion is all about creative design. My inspiration is fashion, architecture, toys, art and graphic design.

Yes there are.

What inspired the design of your "YOUZA" figure?
YOUZA is inspired from a Japanese word "Youzai" which means flux or constantly changing. I chose the Japanese word as a name because the Japanese culture is one of my biggest influences in my life. The art, culture, style, architecture is what I admire.

Flux or constantly changing. Every aspect, influence, that came continuously, it's what makes our life to keep on changing and growing. All of these things happened when I designed YOUZA. Lot's of influences came out and eventually that built a whole new idea in shape and style. YOUZA will always transform simultaneously as well as the influences that manifested themselves along the way, giving a whole new enlightenment of bright and fresh ideas. Even though, YOUZA itself will always stand in it's identity, character, and soul that can always be seen and feel through the face and body.
