I know why
people buy.
(and why they don't.)

Consumer Behaviour · Retail Design · Brand Strategy — Bali

Most shops lose customers before they even open their wallet. I find out why — and fix it. Forty years studying consumer behaviour across Europe and Asia, now leading a remote studio in Bali for international clients and expats who want more than a pretty store.

Mythical Figures of Bali

Mythical Figures
of Bali™

Tu te souviens. — a souvenir, by design.

The word souvenir comes from the French tu te souviensyou remember. Each Mythical Figure is not a trinket, but a keepsake: an object that carries memory, not trend.

Five Balinese guardians — Barong, Hanoman, Dewi Sri, Lion, and Dwarapala — sculpted in 3D in Brussels, printed in wax at Materialise in Leuven, cast in 925 sterling silver in Celuk by master silversmith Eddy Santana.

A first for Bali. CAD design and 3D printing combined with the village's ancestral lost-wax casting — digital precision meeting centuries of ritual.
