My fascination with structures and architecture began during my work as a draftsman and illustrator at the UHA (City of Prague Main Architect's office).

My interest in this field increased after I moved to Sweden in the mid-seventies, when I saw new contemporary designs being neatly incorporated into natural surroundings and urban developments. It was clear to me, that successful designs have to meld the urban development and harmony with nature.
That is why I chose Japanese architecture in urban development as my diploma work at university.

In the early 1980's I lived with my family in Bangkok, Thailand.
I have 3 sons, each of whom is pursuing their own professional career now.

Upon the fall of the Iron Curtain, I returned with my family from Stockholm to Prague, where I worked in a prestigious atelier, and I now work as a freelance architect.

My hobbies and passions include: travel, nature, literature, theatre, painting, dance and music.
As I interact with many different people on social and professional levels, I took up an interest in human psychology.
I enjoy broadening my perspective on life by taking University courses in this interesting field.
