In Conversation: Our Founder shares the inspiration behind her love for modernist inspired design
We sat down with our founder, Martina, to explore the influences that shaped her vision and passion for modernism.
What inspires your love for modernist inspired design?
My passion for modernist-inspired design comes from a variety of influences, including a pronounced emphasis on functionality that prioritises simplicity. I believe that every piece of furniture or lighting design should serve a purpose while still being aesthetically pleasing, and this balance is essential for creating spaces that are both practical and beautiful.
Additionally, I also appreciate the clean, uncluttered lines characteristic of modernism, which create soothing environments, promoting a sense of peace and clarity, allowing for a visual escape from the chaos of everyday life.
Another aspect that draws me in is the integration of form and space; modernism beautifully blurs the boundaries between objects and their surroundings. I love how this approach encourages a seamless flow, making interiors feel more expansive and connected. Furthermore, I find the innovative use of materials and techniques in modernist design incredibly inspiring, as they can elevate a design while showcasing craftsmanship and artistry, bringing soulful presence to a space as a result.
The rich history and cultural significance of modernist movements fascinate me as well. Understanding how these movements have shaped contemporary design and the stories they embody deepens my passion for modern aesthetics and informs my own work as well.
