Nathalie Fransen
Founder | Managing DirectorWhat is your role within Design Studio Nu?
My role is difficult to summarize in a few words. I’m sort of jack of all trades. In practice this means that I organize many things in various fields. Therefore no day is the same: sending the orders, administrate, brainstorming with Tessa for projects to creating a blog post.
What is your favorite part of your job?
Perhaps influenced by my background as a social psychologist, I think the social media part is fun to do. Coming into contact with people all over the world really appeals to me. I also get lots of energy from the flow that Tessa and I have when we work together on projects. We have little words to understand each other and complement each other perfectly.
What plans do you have for Design Studio Nu?
Every year we take a break to close us off from the daily chaos. Then Tessa and I look back on the things we have done and we look forward. In the short term will we create a studio at home for me. And Tessa recently bought a number of buildings with her husband. They will turn those into inspiring workplaces. There are many opportunities there for Design Studio Nu and we will explore those further.
