Surfboard Designs
As an architect, my days are spent defining the relationship between form and function—designing spaces that dictate how we move and objects that shape our daily lives. But for the past few years, my focus has shifted from the rigidity of land to the fluidity of the ocean.
Designing surfboards has gradually become a natural extension of my architectural practice. Just as a building responds to its site, a surfboard is a specialized tool designed to interact with the unique geometry of a wave. By blending structural principles with hydrodynamics, I’ve been exploring how different contours and volumes unlock new "rooms" within the water.
This is my space to share that process—a deep dive into blending curves, the craft, and the specific lines these designs allow us to draw across the face of a wave.
