Hi, I'm Kerstin,
24 years old and a product designer based in Vienna!
I studied Industrial Design at the University of applied Arts in Vienna under the guidance of Stefan Diez, previously Paola Piva. During my time at the HTBLA Hallstatt I also gained skills in interior design and architecture.
I am really into working mechanism details + multi-functional stuff and always trying to collect new experiences and curious to learn new things!
Let's get in touch & start something fun together!
