Outside of game development
Beyond the Screen
Exploring places has always been a major source of inspiration for my work. Beyond game development, I spend much of my free time travelling, hiking, sailing and discovering new landscapes. Whether walking through remote trails, navigating along the coast or wandering through unfamiliar cities, I am constantly drawn to the way environments shape the experiences of the people moving through them.
Photography has become an important part of that process. Through both digital and analog photography, I enjoy documenting places, capturing atmosphere and observing the small details that often go unnoticed.
I am also involved in the restoration of the Castle of Châteauneuf-sur-Epte, contributing to the preservation of a historic site and learning firsthand how architecture, history and human activity leave lasting traces in a place.
