Gather
A space to save ideas, references, visual materials and content before they become structure.
Where intuition and structure meet.
An effective digital project does not come only from a beautiful image or an organised technical structure. It begins when ideas, content, visual tone and practical goals find a shared direction.
MOA모아
The name comes from 모아, a Korean word connected to the idea of gathering and bringing things together.
Before designing, we give shape to what you already have.
It almost always starts as ordered chaos: ideas jotted down in a rush, images saved for later, texts written and rewritten, a direction you can sense but can not quite put into words yet. That is completely fine. You do not need to show up with everything figured out: my work begins exactly there, with whatever raw material you already have, even if it feels scattered or incomplete. I gather it, listen to it, understand what truly matters to you and what is just noise - then turn it into something you can see, read, recognise. I call this process MOA, from the Korean word 모아: bringing together. It is the moment your idea takes a readable shape, before it even becomes a website. From there, structure, rhythm, tone and content start to emerge. Code comes after, and it serves one purpose only: making the direction we chose together solid and built to last. If you already have scattered pieces and are looking for someone who knows how to read them and put them back together, this is the moment to talk.
My starting point is always rhythm.
Even before design, there is a way of bringing order: to images, to words, to spaces, and to the feeling a page leaves as you move through it.
At the Academy, during a lesson, we were asked what our imaginative power was. I answered: music.
Not because my work today has anything directly to do with notes, but because I have always thought through rhythm: fullness and emptiness, pauses, repetitions, contrasts, silences.
It stayed with me. Before images, before words, there is often an atmosphere. A suspended time, a tension, a direction to follow.
Event Horizon was born from there: it is the first playlist I choose to share here, but above all it is one of the playlists I work with. I keep it in the background when I need to enter the right tone of a project.
It is not a playlist made to fill the silence. It feels more like a threshold: something that accompanies the beginning, when an identity does not yet have a clear shape but is already starting to have a voice.
Some tracks open space, others hold it, others seem to stand still for a moment before changing direction. I like working in the same way: listening to what emerges before deciding what to show.
When I design a website, I look for that same kind of rhythm. I do not start from a template to fill, but from a feeling to translate into structure, images, words and movement.
For me, a digital project should be clear, of course, but also capable of leaving a trace. It should guide without overexplaining, give order without becoming rigid, and make it immediately clear that there is a precise identity behind it.
Event Horizon captures that initial space well: the moment when something is still invisible, but already present. And that is often where I begin.

Once the direction is clear, technology helps make it concrete and stable. I use lightweight and flexible tools to build websites that are organised, responsive and easy to maintain: clean structure, readable code, attention to visual detail and a technical base designed to evolve over time.

KONTO
KONTO is my personal software for gathering, organising and following creative work: ideas, content, materials, operational steps and priorities.
It is not a commercial product: it is an internal tool, designed to make the process clearer, traceable and intentional.
Organise
Information is divided into phases, priorities and work areas, so every project stays readable from start to delivery.
Follow the process
KONTO helps track what has been decided, what is missing and which steps bring the project into its final form.
