Ep05 The Maker Hub Meets - Orla Spollen from NutJob Design Fab Lab Maker Hub Podcast

    • 디자인

In the fifth episode of the Maker Hub Podcast we talk to Orla Spollen from NutJob Design. Orla explains how an early love of arts and crafts led her to become a Design and Technology Teacher and how having her own children gave her the ideas and impetus to start her laser cutting business in 2016.

We hear how a lifelong love of working with wood and natural materials has shaped the products she now develops and sells through her online store and the influence of mindfulness and meditation has had on her range of intricate lasercut Mandala designs.

Lastly we talk about her inspiring lockdown experience of The Free Hug Project, where she designed and distributed for free small lasercut heart hug tokens to send to loved ones who were separated during the lockdown. This local gesture of compassion soon turned into an expression of hope and love for staff and residents of nursing homes province wide.
