I was very excited to be part of the new collection organized by Annala x Young Finnish Design with my Blizzard print.

 

Blizzard print gets its inspiration from a happy coincidence, where the texture was created almost by itself from paper cut-outs. The print itself is quite versatile, so I can easily see it in many different applications. It is made approachable and down-to-earth, without compromising its beauty.

I had the pleasure to design an adventurous print called Aarre for Ma-ia Family. 

 

Aarre-print gets its inspiration from the childrens plays and their marvelous imagination. Aare-print is a magical, adventurous world; it's like a map for treasure hunt.

I designed a collection of wallpapers for Kuvatapetti.

 

All the prints were about nature, either bigger sceneries, or just smaller detailes, or then fuzzier surfaces.

The wallpapers can be bought through Kuvatapetti, at www.kuvatapetti.fi.

I had the pleasure to design a summery flower print for Nanso, called Maruna. 

 

Maruna gets its inspiration from the short, yet most beautiful Nordic summer.
