Textures
A personal black-and-white archive of surfaces gathered across geographies and time. Sea, windows, mountains, walls, fabric, skin: textures marked by moments passing and what remains.

An interactive, geocoded archive of my single-origin coffee tastings, linking sensory notes to origin regions and real-time weather data to explore the relationship between place, climate, and flavor.
