Anika Paulus
Living in Berlin, the city is my vital inspiration with its atmosphere, vastness, contrasting and juxtaposed architecture, but for a very long time now my heart belongs to Scandinavia equally. I’m enthusiastic about design from a functionality perspective and as an expression of personality, about clean aesthetics and minimalism. Balanced by yoga and the great outdoors, passionate sourdough bread baker and natural wine lover, I appreciate high quality and detail in everything I do, and the simple things in life.
