In 2018, he established Studio Adaptive Skins. This textile architecture studio focuses on the application of adaptive clothing, mainly wearable designs, high fashion and material installations. In addition, the studio offers a broad range of adaptive textiles and services to other companies. Sustainability and upcycling are important starting points.
