About the Artist
A fortuitous 2012 encounter between fine arts student Suzy Syme and architecture student Andrew Costa led to an inseparable union, fuelled by a love of nature, design, and discovery. Enticed by a profession that encapsulates the merging of artistic creativity with the logic of complex problem-solving, Suzy soon joined the architectural path, and in 2022 the now husband and wife duo united life and practice by founding emerging firm Costa Syme Architects. Out of the unification of art and architecture a new-found passion emerged; harnessing the extraordinary potential of algorithmic modelling to conceive and ‘grow’ sculptures inspired by natural wonders. Captivated by the joys that nature-evoking art and design can bring, Suzy and Andrew then founded Tide Pool Designs, seeking to share their sculptural creations with the aim of enriching the lives of others in kind, while provoking conversations on the importance of preserving the natural world.
