Designing & Making

Praxis: Definition

Praxis (noun): The process of turning ideas or theory into practical action. It means putting what you know into practice — the act of doing, making, or applying knowledge in a real, tangible way.

“What Praxis Is About”

Welcome to Praxis - a journal about the journey of a designer and maker transforming an idea or problem into a tangible object.

Here, I’ll explore how design thinking meets hands-on making, blending traditional analogue techniques with digital tools to form a smooth, iterative workflow. The goal isn’t just precision, but discovery - learning how digital geometry tools, sometimes pushed far beyond their intended use, can unlock creative outcomes not achievable by conventional means alone.

Praxis is where experimentation, problem-solving, and curiosity intersect - where design theory becomes lived experience through the act of making.
