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.

I’ve recently started my own studio, PalomaStudio, and I am actively engaged in raising awareness about how spaces impact our health, always seeking to promote holistic well-being.

I live with several rare diseases, use a wheelchair, and have an environmental condition (Multiple Chemical Sensitivity).

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.

Curious, dynamic, and passionate about new experiences and continuous learning, I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Design Engineering and a Master's Degree in Industrial and Product Design from the Politecnico di Milano.

Creative by passion, with more than 7 years of experience in the design field. Master in Sustainable Design from IED Barcelona, specialist in Design and Product Development from the National University of Colombia. Throughout my career I have mediated in problematic situations and recognized needs, to build integrative scenarios that ensure human welfare and sustainability, I have materialized solutions of circular design, food design and regenerative design, using strategies in eco-innovation and circular economy. I have developed research projects with communities belonging to different rural territories in Spain and Colombia, around food waste, the creation of new agro-cultural systems, education and awareness for positive change, ensuring the living heritage of food and its involvement in social, economic and environmental management.

Joey Fulterer is a designer with roots in Vienna, Dornbirn, and the Mölltal (Austria). In 2023, she graduated with honors in “Manual and Material Culture” from the New Design University. After her studies, she won a student competition with her project “EinzahlMehrzahl” and exhibited at the Blickfang in the MAK Museum. Her project “Trio” was showcased in the NDU “Best of” exhibition and at the Vienna Design Week 2023, and it is now part of the exhibition “AUT NOW – 100× Austrian Design” at the MAK. The greatest inspiration for her work is her mother, who has lived with a severe visual impairment since birth. Through these experiences, she aims to focus her design work on craftsmanship and inclusive design.

Lale Bermadinger, born in Salzburg, Austria, began her design education at HTL Salzburg, focusing on interior design, surfaces, and textiles. After earning a Bachelor’s degree in Manual & Material Culture at NDU St. Pölten, she supported the design studio ante up and explored circular economy practices at the Czech startup Cyrkl. As of 2023, she has been part of BauKarussell, a collaboration dedicated to deconstructing large-scale buildings with social enterprises. In 2024, Lale founded “blass & orange,” where she creates products, materials, and scenographies in her Vienna studio. Last year, she was awarded the Startstipendium Design by the Federal Ministry of Austria. Her work is research-oriented, aiming to create holistic solutions for obsolete or wasted resources.

I was born 22 years ago in Lower Bavaria, where I grew up surrounded by nature. Early on, I fell in love with creative work—drawing, painting, crafting, writing. As I got older, my urge to create was accompanied by the goal of contributing to a better world. This led me to Cologne, where I studied Sustainable Design at the ecosign academy. This year, I graduated with a bachelor’s degree and am now building my career as a freelance communication designer and illustrator.
