STATEMENT OF ART:
“The fundamental and ultimate goal of my design is to improve people’s way of living and interaction within the space they are in. Quality of life is enhanced through the creation of a space that combines aesthetics and lifestyle with functionality and sustainability.”

Being a multifaceted designer in both interior and lighting design, Max also stresses the importance of the use of lighting. “Lighting breathes life into a space. It invigorates the design of an interior. It is an integral and inseparable part in the design process – it completes and enlivens the story.”
