Hi! I'm Valentina, a sustainable designer, craftswoman and illustrator from Germany. At the moment I live and work in Helsinki, Finland.

DIY, drawing and creativity has always been an important part of my life, which is why I studied at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich for a BA in Interior Architecture. Following my dream to live abroad, I moved to Finland to study at Aalto University Helsinki for a MA in Product and Spatial Design and even further abroad for an exchange semester at the Iceland Academy of Arts in Reykjavik.  

I work as a graphic and product designer and at the same time I run my own creative side business Wasteless Wonders - where I create handmade zero waste home textiles and work with fellow small sustainable businesses to reduce their production scraps.
