PORT FO/ LIO KASIA KRÓL
Hello I’m a product designer specialising in jewelry and fashion accessories, currently based in Cracow. I have an Industraial Designer MA diploma, which I belive gave me a great versatility in many areas of design, such as graphics, textiles or product design, but my passion and interest for fashion has led me quite naturally into jewelry and accessories. Today, with over 5 years of professional experience, my knowledge allows me to understand and adapt to the needs of each target. I’ve worked for international brands which helped me better understand the needs of consumers across the world and accustome to performing in fast-paced and deadline-driven environments.

Designing for commercial markets requires a combination of many skills, not only artistic but also analytical and technical. As a designer, I am perfectly familiar with production methods and materials of pieces that I work with. I also believe that technology is now an inseparable element of my work, which is why I became fluent in several graphic and CAD programs. For me, fashion is a sharing discipline which favors open-mindedness. This is why it is essential for me to stay on the lookout for trends and inspirations and overall - new challenges. Please feel free to contact me about any questions, proposals or potential collaborations!

Intelligent sportswear together with dedicated software allows to monitor some parameters of patient’s movement and saves all the data in the mobile application. It can be used indoors and outdoors, while the patient is exercising or just doing everyday activities.
The project uses modern flex sensors and elastic circuits, which are comfortable and safe to wash. Removable controller with microprocessor is placed in the back and connects to the software via Bluetooth.
Monitoring the movement and enables better problem analysis and treatment optimization, but most importantly it’s being updated in real time so the physiotherapists can check on their patients and talk to them remotely. As a result the consultation takes less time, is more effective and the overall cost
This project was awarded with 100 000 PLN subsidy under the grant program: „Małopolski Inkubator Innowacji Społecznych”.

Sportwear for pregnant women A set of sports clothing designed for pregnant women. Appropriate design ensures even distribution of forces affecting the spine.
According to medical research staying physically active during pregnancy is highly beneficial for both, maternal and infant health. This has resulted in a growing market of fitness classes for future mothers. Unfortunately, the clothing market for pregnant women is relatively small and dedicated fitness garments for pregnant women are difficult to find. Other problems that affect many pregnant women are negative body image, body dissatisfaction and self-esteem issues. That’s why it is so important to provide more attractive and fashionable wear for gravids. The proposed clothing set composed of leggings and specially tailored shirts takes into account the changes occurring in pregnant woman’s body and mitigates some of the accompanying discomforts. The sports-centric line aims to emphasize the woman’s attractiveness and therefore promote an active lifestyle.
The proposed clothing set composed of leggings and specially tailored shirts takes into account the changes occurring in pregnant woman’s body and mitigates some of the accompanying discomforts. The sports-centric line aims to emphasize the woman’s attractiveness and therefore promote an active lifestyle. The leggings have a raised waistline and tightened lower partitions to aid circulation. In addition, the shirts integrate elastic support bands to protect and stabilize the stomach during exercise. Finally, the strengthened back section ensures an even weight distribution on the shoulders and back, as well as helping improve posture. This suit provides many benefits for active pregnant women, especially in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. One of the goals is to dynamically adjust the size of the suit to fit the abdomen, which can be done thanks to the use of modern materials.
