LABEL INFO:
Nika Ravnik is a Slovenian designer. She finds inspiration in personal life, in odd things that catch her attention. The ethos of her design is sustainably oriented, both, in designing by the “zero-waste” principle, as well as in the creation of “one-size-fits-all” clothing. In Nika Ravnik’s world the lead story revolves around the colours, textures and details, upgraded by the geometric forms. By amplifying and manipulating concrete details of some inspiration, her creations become an authentic language that sometimes needs translation first to understand what is the concept behind. Her design is defined as multifunctional minimalism, combining avant-garde simplicity with artistic craftsmanship, tender provocation and timelessness.
