I develop tools for designing complex textures iteratively

I'm currently doing a PhD in the Maverick team under the supervision of Joelle Thollot and Thomas Hurtut. We are working on programmable models for generating vector patterns, currently in collaboration with Romain Vergne. See below my recent publications and some results. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in talking about anything interesting!

Our demonstration tool is yet to be released. Technologies currently used: C++, CGAL, Python, Swig, Havoc3D, Qt, Trimesh2 and Real Time Suggestive Contours (for experiments on vector patterns constrained by mesh properties).

Research themes

My work deals with several issues: computer depiction, stylised rendering, description of style models in art and especially programmable description of methods for generating vector patterns and images.
