FAINA - live Ukrainian design collection, inspired by cultural roots, established in 2014 in Kyiv, Ukrainian.
The story of FAINA began in 2014 with idea of Ukrainian architect and designer Victoria Yakusha to make national identity understandable and recognizable throughout the world. The collection is based on her study of the domestic traditions, materials and craft techniques that were carefully transformed into contemporary minimalist design objects. Clay, felt, willow, flax, and solid wood - are the main elements of collection, helping author to express the concept of "live design" and involve simultaneously all human senses. "Through the FAINA collection, I wanted to reflect the whole life force of energy that has been encapsulated over the Ukrainian land for centuries" - Victoria Yakusha. Nowadays FAINA has over 50 items in 4 categories: capsule clay line, upholstered furniture, lightening and decor.
