Lotta’s
aesthetic is deeply rooted in the Scandinavian landscape.
She was born 1971 on Åland, a small group of islands in the
archipelago between Sweden and Finland. Her Swedish heritage
is also apparent in her pragmatic and self-sufficient
approach to design. Can’t find what you want? Make it! Don’t
know how? Learn it! Lotta takes the basic craft skills she
learned as a child, such as potato printmaking and simple
sewing, and stretches them into sophisticated tools. Lotta’s
designs may be steeped in artisan traditions and a DIY
spirit but the homespun aspect ends there. Her look is sleek
and urban and her products are created for a busy city life.
Her awareness, substance and instinctive sense of style are
perfectly suited for contemporary lifestyles. As is her
generosity and sharing of knowledge. She plants seeds and
let others reap the benefits. Because you always reap what
you sew. |

Weaving
together elements of simple Scandinavian-influenced
style with products that are at once handmade and
modern, Lotta’s smart, organic designs have earned her
international acclaim in a short time. A self-taught
designer, Lotta launched her company out of her small
San Francisco apartment in 1996, quickly establishing a
strong grassroots following. Now, she works from her
studio in Brooklyn, where she dreams up creative ideas
for branded lifestyle products ranging from textiles to
tabletop. She has published a series of lifestyle and
craft books with Chronicle, and is building her branded
collection in specialty and home goods channels in
collaboration with her agency, Moxie & Company.
Recently honored as an “Arbiter of Style” by Christies,
and featured on Design Sponge as well as on her own
blog, Lotta’s unstoppable creativity continues to
thrive. |
