A graduate of the prestigious Central Saint Martin’s School & Royal College of Arts in London, Marta Bakowski has long been fascinated by crafts and folk arts, which are strongly embedded in her multidisciplinary approach to design.

Her trademark bold and graphic style makes powerful use of colors and textures, bringing forth an expressive and playful quality as well as a meaningful storytelling to her creations. Greatly inspired by her travels and encounters with other cultures, she believes in the necessity to anchor design in a context, which in turn impacts her creative response.

With a strong interest in research and several international collaborations such as “International Design Expeditions” under her belt, she considers herself an apprentice pushing possibilities beyond, enriching her work through a poetic explorations of materiality and new creative human relationships.
