I am Jasmin Martinez and I am a textile + material designer based in Innsbruck, Austria.
My curiousity for textile processes developed into a passion for building open-source tools with a focus that allow to engineer yarns in any scale.
Driven by the problematics of human overconsumption, my goal as a designer is to push the boundaries of biobased and leftover (fibre) materials by exploring new aesthethics and applications through their transformation with open-source tools.
