His passion and obsession towards design, nature and cultures is always reflected in his works. It is not hard to see minimalist, contemporary simplicity in his designs and his art pieces. He is well appreciated by his amazing colour combinations and stunning composition. He likes to work with organic forms and believes that nature is the best artist. His main inspirations are from natural elements. He represents simplicity through his design philosophy, for simplicity is the greatest adornment of art. This ultimate inspiration behind all the design collections and his works that represents genuine forms of nature. He admires everything in original forms and purity. He is very much into Japanese culture and also a very big admirer of Hayao Miyakaki San, a Japanese Art Director from Studio Gihibli.

Embodying the play of curves described by nature, B uni symbolizes the beauty of the nature. Curves of nature are simple, fluid and familiar to our lives. B uni represents this simplicity through its design philosophy.
For simplicity is the greatest adornment of art. This is the ultimate inspiration behind
all the design collection of B uni that represents genuine forms of nature.
