Johanna Hehemann

Aalto University

Fashion & Textile Designer specialising in functional textiles made from natural materials. In my creative work I find great joy in exploring new materials as well as alternative methods for textile finishings — particularly around natural dyeing and its medicinal properties. Currently I am researching how to use the inherent properties of natural materials to create functional wear that can have positive effects on the wearer. Alongside this more technical approach to textile design, I am also very fascinated how textile crafts can bring people together which I explore through workshops and community focused projects.
