Oskar Zieta is an architect, artist, and process designer, as well as the CEO of Zieta Studio. He holds a doctorate from the ETH Zürich. He is the author of the iconic PLOPP stool (2008) and other inflated steel projects on the verge between sculpture and functional objects. His designs are on display at Vitra Schaudepot in Weil am Rhein, Schule für Gestaltung and many museums and galleries around the world.
Joanna Hawrot is a designer and founder of the HAWROT brand. Her creative practice is rooted in exploring the intricate and unexpected relationship between fashion and art. For 14 years, Hawrot has consistently pursued her unique philosophy "FROM FASHION TO ART," creating modern interpretations of kimonos, which today form the very DNA of her brand.
Hawrot's designs have already gained international recognition, with her collections showcased at prestigious exhibitions in Tokyo, Paris, and New York. In the summer of 2024, her first solo exhibition, "Kimono as Experience. The Artistic Language of Joanna Hawrot," was held at the National Museum in Wrocław. In June 2025, the designer will present her artistic collections at the World EXPO in Osaka, Japan.
