Bei dem Design des Nackenkissens lag mein Fokus darauf, das Schlafen in der sitzenden Position komfortabler zu gestalten. Dafür habe ich ein zweites Kissen für den Rücken integriert und die Seitenteile des Nackenkissens so verlängert, dass diese zu Taschen werden. Das Nackenkissen umarmt so den ganzen Körper und gibt einem ein wohliges Gefühl während dem Reisen.
Das Muster basiert auf Anne Scribas Strecke von Phuket nach Bangkok in Thailand, welche ich genutzt habe um das Kissen in mehrere große Flächen zu unterteilen. Annes Geschichte zu dieser Reise kann in dem Booklet "Path Tiles - A collection of stories and patterns" nachgelesen werden.

When designing the neck pillow, my focus was on making sleeping in a sitting position more comfortable. To achieve this, I integrated a second pillow for the back and extended the sides of the neck pillow so that they become pockets. The neck pillow hugs the whole body and gives you a feeling of cozyness while traveling.
The pattern is based on Anne Scriba's route from Phuket to Bangkok in Thailand, which I used to divide the cushion into several large surfaces. Anne's story about this journey can be read in the booklet “Path Tiles - A collection of stories and patterns”.
Die Diplomarbeit "Path Tiles" wurde im April 2024 im Lichthof der HfG ausgestellt. Das Herzstück des Displays bildete der 10 Meter lange Tisch, dessen äußere Form an der Route von Litauen nach Deutschland orientiert ist. Zusätzlich wurde diese Route detailgetreu in die Oberfläche gefräst. Sie beschreibt meinen persönlichen Weg der Auswanderung nach Deutschland als ich noch ein Kind war. Die finalen Objekte wurden über dem Tisch aufgehängt während die zugehörigen Geschichten, Muster, Routen und Fotos auf dem Tisch gezeigt wurden.
Ich bedanke mich ganz herzlich für die Umsetzung des Ausstellungsdesigns bei Erik Grunder, Finn de Bruyn, Alexander Knoppik und Sebastian Schäfer.

The diploma “Path Tiles” was exhibited in the atrium of the HfG in April 2024. The centerpiece of the display was the 10-meter-long table, whose outer shape is based on the route from Lithuania to Germany. This route was also milled into the surface in great detail. It describes my personal path of emigration to Germany when I was a child. The final objects were hung above the table while the corresponding stories, patterns, routes and photos were displayed on the table.
I would like to express my sincere thanks for the realization of the exhibition design to Erik Grunder, Finn de Bruyn, Alexander Knoppik and Sebastian Schäfer.
Der klassische Schal wird hier durch zwei fast unsichtbare Taschen an den Enden aufgewertet. Das Muster basiert auf der von Erik Grunder getrackten Strecke von Karlsruhe nach Wien. Er hat diese GPS-Daten genutzt um auf der Path Tiles Website ein Muster zu erstellen, welches ich dann verwendet habe um diesen Schal zu stricken.
Eriks Text zu dieser Route kann in dem Booklet "Path Tiles - A collection of stories and patterns" nachgelesen werden.

The classic scarf is upgraded by two almost invisible pockets at the ends. The pattern is based on the route tracked by Erik Grunder from Karlsruhe to Vienna. He used this GPS data to create a pattern on the Path Tiles website, which I then used to knit this scarf.
Erik's text about this route can be found in the booklet “Path Tiles - A collection of stories and patterns”.
Bei dem Design dieses Objekt war es mein Ziel eine Tasche zu gestalten, die gleichzeitig ein Kissen ist. Die Idee ist, dass man sein Kissen so nicht Platz verschwenderisch in einer Tasche verstauen muss, sondern das Kissen selbst als Stauraum nutzen kann.
Das Muster basiert auf Wieki Somers Route von Rotterdam nach Karlsruhe, welche sie regelmäßig bestreitet. Sie hat die GPS-Daten dieser Strecke genutzt um ein persönliches Muster auf der Path Tiles Website zu erstellen. Dieses habe ich dann in Form der Tasche realisiert.

When designing this object, my aim was to create a bag that is also a cushion. The idea is that you don't have to waste space storing your cushion in a bag, but can use the cushion itself as storage space.
The pattern is based on Wieki Somer's route from Rotterdam to Karlsruhe, which she regularly takes. She used the GPS data from this route to create a personal pattern on the Path Tiles website. I then realized this in the form of the bag.
The Dip LED Lamp is an upright disk, radiating directional light. The small dimensions of the LED technology allow for a tilted forward layout of the individual light-emitting diodes in the body of the lamp. This basically means glare-free light, but by playfully rolling the lamp to and fro, the light can be guided in any direction desired. The built-in battery makes the lamp independent of a fixed place, giving it a fun aspect beyond its functional quality.
