Hi!

I’m Lauri, a designer who loves crafting bold, minimalist designs with a playful twist. My work is all about blending traditional craftsmanship with fresh, creative ideas — think timeless pieces with a dash of personality.

Inspired by the world around me—nature’s quiet beauty, the richness of heritage, and the wisdom of traditional methods. I aim to create designs that feel alive, telling a story through its curves, lines, and details. Whether it’s furniture or sculptural experiments, my goal is to make things that are not only practical but spark a little joy too.
