Made in Bulgaria, raised in Morocco, and matured in the UK, I'm now lucky to call New York City home. I write about cities, buildings, objects, and materials, with a particular interest in biomimicry, branding, and the intersection of psychology and design.
I am a contributing writer for Fast Company's Co. Design, where I write about design daily. (If you have a tip or a story idea, drop me a line!)
My stories have also appeared in The Atlantic, CNN Style, Bloomberg CityLab, Smithsonian, Curbed, Metropolis, Architectural Digest, Eye on Design, Cultured, Next City, Wallpaper*, Blueprint, ICON, Dezeen, Suitcase, and elsewhere.
From 2018-2019, I was the editor of OnOffice Magazine in London. More recently, I also wrote a column for LX Collection called Block & Lot, which takes an in-depth look at the blocks—the actual rectangles bounded by streets and avenues—that make up Manhattan.
Not sure where to start? Here are some personal favorites:
