Hi, I'm Liisa!
There is a brilliant word—scheming—though it's often associated with a negative connotation. I, however, love to scheme in a more positive light — for me, it’s about gathering information, analyzing how the pieces connect, and spending hours rearranging them to uncover innovative solutions.
Being able to do this as a designer is truly a dream. I currently work as a freelance graphic designer, following my graduation with a Bachelor’s degree in Product Design from the Estonian Academy of Arts.
