ABOUT
T I K K I S T U D I O
Connecting consumers , designers and makers
T I K K I Studio started as an effort to promote sustainability in the consumption of textile goods by connecting consumers, designers and makers through a sewing workshop that encourages the public to repair, upcycle and sew textile goods like clothing and bags.
Acknowledging that sewing is a dying life skill that used to be passed down from mothers to daughters/sons, T I K K I Studio wants to continue that tradition of creating special bonds and sentiments and passing down a skill through our services, may it be between family or friends or our community. The accessible and fun sewing workshops provide a social space for people to feel empowered to sew their goods. Through this, you will have an opportunity to make sustainable and conscious choices and to give a prolonged life to your old items or second-hand purchases.
THE MASTERMIND
Hello!
Welcome to T I K K I Studio! I am Nina, the designer, maker and the facilitator here @ T I K K I. With a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in Fashion and Clothing Design, and work experience in an apparel manufacturing company under my belt, I can help you with your sewing and design needs in every aspect. Being trained in both the technical side, such as clothes making, textile printing, computer illustrations and pattern drafting, and the conceptual side, such as design, research and problem solving, I am able to use my skills to approach any challenging problems for projects. Overall, It is important for me to offer and share the skills that I possess with you. May it be your need to learn how to sew, to have something altered, fixed or customized, or just simply curious about the apparel industry, I am here to help.
