During his extensive studies in Germany and California Axel developed a vision of an integrated design that reunites disciplines segregated in a modern understanding of project design Development. Finding a common "tune" in architecture, interior design, and landscaping aims to revive the holistic view of the Bauhaus and earlier Arts and Crafts movement.
Shaping one of the most successful modern design practices in Vietnam he established principles of a design approach based on respect for nature, culture and individual which leads to the finished project not only rooted in the genius loci but subtly creating the notion of a vessel for human activity that seeds creative Development.
Thus the project becomes an incubator of future culture through spaces that are open to interpretation rather than communicating a doctrine.
Axel prefers well-crafted simplicity with thoughtful and measured spatial arrangement in which materials in their natural expression form a harmonic yet stimulating environment.
