Hi there!

I’m Kaisa, Finnish textile designer specialized in colour design and woven textiles. The rhythms of continuous surface patterns, the tactile qualities of fabrics or the interaction of colours in textiles newer cease to inspire.

I’m currently based in Graz, Austria. I divide my time between freelance projects and work at an established Austrian company as designer of woven textiles. I have had the chance to work in Sweden, India and the USA, from which I gathered a good overview on the worldwide textile market. I hold a Master’s degree from Aalto ARTS, one of the highest ranked design universities globally.

I am thoughtful and strategic in my professional projects, and take into account all aspects of textile design from colour and structure to collection management. Working in close contact with manufacturing has given me great insight for creating beautiful, good quality textiles. It’s a privilege to be able to do what I love. I’m always curious, enthusiastic and open for new experiences!

Let’s be in touch!
