About

I am a spatial and furniture designer from Northern Finland, presently living in Helsinki. I find my inspiration from arctic nature and characteristics of materials. My previous studies in cultural anthropology are reflected in my present design work through an understanding of ecology and its connection to society. After completing my MA studies in cultural anthropology, I am currently working towards a second MA degree in Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture.
