Want to know how to set up your own business? Want to rock interior styling? Easy, read this. I am so proud of Annetta Kristjánsdóttir and Ellinor Belvén for creating their own voice though their interior styling company SALTY interiors, bringing Scandinavian design to Germany. I learnt a thing or two from these lovely ladies, so the best way I could think of honouring them was to share their story. Happy reading! xx

For my next feature on Wähälä I interviewed Evelina Romano, illustrator and womenswear designer at KENZO about her drawing projects and processes, and their role in her work as a designer. I've known Evelina for years now, and looking back I always knew she had a creative path ahead of her. Since then, she's developed her intricate, beautiful drawings to serve her as essential tools in her daily work as well as an important and personal creative outlet. Wish you a great start to the week and happy reading!

I have not had the chance to visit Uruguay personally since my last post. However, gallerist Piero of Piero Atchugarry Gallery has definitely convinced me to bucketlist his gallery space in Garzón's beautiful countryside... I knew little about Uruguay's current contemporary art scene but was fascinated to find that his gallery is bringing international attention to artists as well as the local art market there. We talked about emerging artists in Uruguay, setting up an art space in Miami and hosting artist residency programs - if you are looking for a new art adventure, Uruguay is the one! Follow the link to the latest article on Wähälä! Happy ��!
