SERVUS. HELLO. HOLA.
A VIENNA BRED WANDERER
Living in Vienna, Barcelona, Paris, Ibiza and New York has shaped my outlook, allowing me to appreciate problems from a diverse cultural perspective, and to approach all projects with unique enthusiasm. As a lover of all things that spark my natural curiosity I live life dreaming, doing, dancing while travelling the world.

JESSICA ACOSTA INTERVIEW WITH DESIGNER What inspires you in your design work? I am inspired by how people have been expressing themselves through history and how technology will affect them in their present and future. In terms of architecture, design, perspective and identity. How would you describe your work or your style? My style is a mix of my culture background, my present and myself. What made you decide to become a designer? Since I was a child I have been very interested in every field of design. I started with making drawings and paintings but that wasn’t enough for me so I decided to develop myself in the field of fashion as my tool to express myself in society and to represent that society in my designs. Who are your influences? People in general and the way they express themselves towards something.

CREST HARDWARE
SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVE
An exploration into the business practices and sustainability initiatives was conducted at Crest Hardware, after this recommendations to be enacted within the business were developed to promote business sustainability.
CREST HARDWARE
RECCOMENDATIONS Educational Experience: Crest should offer workshops to the public and any interested parties. Crest can utilize their existing employees knowledge and skills, thus no extra instructors are need and only small monetary amount is needed to conduct the workshops. Crest can touch on a bit of vertical integration, by engaging with local schools they can offer kids an interesting and educational experience, while building long lasting customer relationship. Crest Rental Space: implement a rental service in order to gain a more competitive edge to other hardware stores. Crest would offer its hardware and gardening tools for rental. This would prove convenient for consumers across all customer segments and be especially convenient in the case of large equipment that is purchased for one time jobs at a high cost. Crest Delivery Service: Crest could expand its competitive edge even more by implementing a delivery service for customers who don‘t have the means to transport the purchased equipment. Crest would hire an employee to deliver the items. This would create an additional revenue stream and would also add convenience to the customers shopping experience.
THOUGHT CULTURE HISTORY RESEARCH
WOMAN AS FEMBOTS
‘ This science-fiction movie is a snapshot of the approach the
‘ WITHOUT KNOWING THE FORCE OF WORDS, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW MORE. ’
CONFUCIUS
male dominated society of 1927 had towards females, technology and the future. Through the depiction of the machine woman, it also becomes clear that there is not only an underlying fear of technology but simultaneously a fear of the advancement in women’s independence and their growing freedom to express their sexuality. 1965 merely six years after Mattel created the first Barbie doll and thirty years after the release of Metropolis, the world is a different place. The swinging sixties, the time of hippies, mini skirts and youth culture was vibrant with expectations and high hopes for the future. In this movie we see another theme evolve, the loss of individuality. Beyond depicting the fembots as super sexual with their hyper feminine appearance, they remain man made and controlled. ’
