Eva Rodinis (Zagreb, 2002.) is a product designer who finds particular inspiration in meaningful objects, spaces and concepts as new typologies that evoke interaction and emotion, connecting the poetics of words with the creative experimentation. Her work aims to evoke whimsical interactions of discovery, reflection, connection and playfulness.
Continuing the (re)search for the interesting in various contexts, she enjoys writing poetry (and finding it in everything).
