Bio
I am Marta Minarkova, founder and owner of Spin Studio, a company that works with reuse design and repairing old furniture. The main idea is raising eco-awareness among the clients, reducing waste, and giving a new life to old items and furniture.
I work as a general interior designer for 13 years now, and my biggest passion is sustainable and ecological projects. In 2016th I won the main award in the competition Philanthropy of Green Ideas, Balkan region (from Rockefeller foundation) for my Reuse Design project, which gave me the opportunity to build my own company.
Spin works with local craftsmen supporting the traditional skills, it engages young designers in the creative process of making new unique designs and gives opportunities for people to keep the old piece of furniture that they have an emotional connection with, in form of new fresh pieces.
