“Old is beautiful” is the sentence that has been in my head for 13 years. An idea which started to form while spending time with my grandma, playing with fabrics, scissors and listening to her stories. As a designer I combine product design with traditional knowledge and social innovation, working with local communities, and elderly groups, long term unemployed,disabled, immigrants and others. In 2014, Grandma Came to Work received its first seed funding and to celebrate I tattooed this sentence in my skin.
