SIIRI PAKARINEN
Blogging, Visual Storytelling
& Shoes Design

Charming to meet you,
I am Siiri, a designer, blogger and a romantic soul with passion for all things storytelling and beautiful shoes. With a Bachelor's degree in footwear and 8 years of writing blog posts about style, my skill set ranges from accessories design and visual storytelling to communication.
As a dancer my design world is also heavily in"luenced by ballet – a visual artfrom known for its beauty, elegance & historical references. In fact, I carry my dancer self to every aspect of my life and when it comes to design my approach is more holistic rather than technical: every colour has a smell, every collection has a sound, every garment inspires movement & all design has consequences.
After all, we make objects for us to experience our lifes under their shells. I can make shoes and give them names and purpose but what they will become once you walk out into the world is unknown. For design is constantly on the go.
So, personally, what I want out of design is this ever changing possibility to write stories, and then, rewrite them.
