DS: Tell us a little about yourself—your studies, career path, and how you started designing and producing objects.
My background in architectural studies trained me to design for the built environment across various scales, from urban planning to intricate details in furniture and small objects. A few years ago, when my architectural work became centered around bureaucratic stuff, I felt the need to return to hands-on creation, but on a smaller scale with simpler processes. That led me to design furniture, lighting, decorative objects, and eventually fashion accessories. I began to view fashion from a conceptual perspective—as a form of architecture for the human body.
