Helena Dell-Kolaschnik has been in touch with important representatives of the design industry in Russia for many years. After extensive research on the spot concerning the identity and status of Russian design and pioneer designers in Russia in the context of her MA thesis at FH Potsdam, her blog and she herself have become an important reference for Russian designers interested in an exchange with Germany.
We are very happy to have Helena on board TYPO Berlin 2013 and we sent her a few questions regarding this year’s TYPO Berlin’s Design Special on Russia.
