Carolina Rodriguez

Statement

I spend most of my time outside, climbing, getting dirty, getting lost in the mountains and becoming inspired by their beauty. Cultivating a deep love and respect for our earth; I came into industrial design to create solutions that will protect and enrich her and all who inhabit her.

My drive to design for positive social and environmental impact, my experience in co-creation, my knowledge in the R&D of sustainable materials and technologies; along with my personal lifestyle brings a new perspective to the conventional world of industrial design.
