Elisa Schneider was born in Bavaria (Germany) in 2001. She is studying sustainable design at the „ecosign / Akademie für Nachhaltiges Design” in Cologne, specialising in social sustainability. In 2021, she received a scholarship from a German organisation for the promotion of gifted students. Her internship at the „German Corporate for International Cooperation”, involvement as an UN volunteer and work with the NGO „Endulen e.V.”, which supports rural healthcare in Tanzania, shaped her commitment to international cooperation. In 2023, she was able to take part in a project trip to Tanzania, where she could learn about the life and needs of the local communities. Alongside her studies, she works in web and online communication design for UNICEF Germany.

Leja Rebolj is an industrial designer focused on sustainable design, material research, and circular innovation. She graduated in 2024 from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana, with an exchange at ESADSE in Saint-Etienne, France. Leja’s work combines design, science, and craftsmanship, with a focus on biomaterials and alternative production methods. She developed Pomter, a biopolymer packaging made from discarded potato peels, merging her passion for cooking and material innovation. Her approach earned her the Slovene Design Awards 2024. In 2025, she showcased her work at MOME in Budapest, marking her international exhibition debut. Leja envisions to expand her sustainable design practice and collaborate globally on biomaterials and eco-conscious solutions.

I am an Industrial Design student at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. I was born and raised in Germany, where I completed a professional carpentry apprenticeship. During my exchange semester I studied glass at Bezalel Academy in Jerusalem and am currently working as an assistant in a Viennese Ceramic Studio. I am planning to graduate in spring 2026. I have come to seek parameters that guide my design process within the realm of craftsmanship. It is within the craft approach that we find the connection to all kind of materials, the purpose of an object, and its subsequent use. I have made it my mission to explore this sensual potential and translate it into serial production.

Graduated as an Industrial Design Engineer with a Sustainable Design Master’s Degree, I am a passionate and curious designer who blends creativity and technology. I approach projects holistically, from research to final development, considering all technical and conceptual aspects. I see design as a transformative tool and strive to create innovative solutions that solve problems and drive positive impact. Currently, I work as a designer at Cosmic within the Roca Group.

Graduated in Graphic Design from Elisava, and throughout her professional experience, I have worked on diverse projects that allowed me to explore different styles, take creative risks, and achieve unexpected results. This process has helped me expand my knowledge by integrating new content creation platforms with those I was already familiar with. Currently, I am working as UX/UI at Bertrandt Group for SEAT S.A.
