About

On the record

I am a fashion designer, stylist, artist and marketing specialist from Estonia. I have a bachelor's degree in leather and accessory design at the Estonian Academy of Arts and am currently pursuing a master's degree in fashion. I stand for sustainable products. As I mainly work with post-consumer waste or leftovers, it is very important for me to appreciate the value of “trash” as a new normality, because so much goes into developing different outcomes. But sustainability is not only about materials, it is also about the way we interact with products - designing to instigate the way in which people use them. Layering them, adding functionality and playfulness, to keep products longer in use.
