The knowledge of material characteristics allows the designer not only to make the best materials selections as function of its application in a given product but also to overcome its limits constraints in the design path where materials and transformations technologies become variables of the creation process. I love to travel places,Sketching and make physical model which help me keeping my self engage with design.
