Whether it’s a small step for man or a giant leap for mankind, the feet taking that leap should always be exquisitely-shod. That, at least, is the natural point of view for footwear label Finsk, whose experimental Future Tense animation Crystal Corolla features Star Wars-style space-bound geometric crystals ‘giving birth’ to the labels latest stylish footwear creations.

Extract from an interview with Julia Lundsten
- What is important to you in your own design work?
To trust my instincts and remain true to my own style.
- Can one let go in design?
Of course, and it is important to do so but without being gimmicky. Design should not be too serious. I think good design is simplicity with some intelligent twist not to make it boring. Unexpected surprises in design are also good.
- What inspires you right now?
People seem to be much more open-minded towards non-conventional footwear. Consumers are also tired of bad quality mass-produced replicas of big brand signature looks. In general there are more people looking for unique, interesting shoes. For a designer this opens many doors and permits play with materials, shapes etc.
- What's your greatest dream in design?
To educate consumers to understand and demand good design of the highest quality.
