Design as Living Memory.

Architect & Designer · Studio in Jordan

Her design process reflects on identity’s shifting manifestations across time, craft, and place.

This inquiry into heritage is guided by the ritual uses of materials, past and present, and their transformative power to create atmosphere. Most importantly, her works embody a visible dialogue between making and meaning, celebrating and renewing traditional crafts. Here, art and artisanship unite: pride and joy radiate not only from abstracted visual forms but also from the mastery of their makers.

Xena’s intellectual exploration is enriched by personal encounters across generations and geographies, combined with an innate sensitivity to nostalgia’s role in shaping a sense of identity.
