This is a book exploring the topics of overlap and convergence for which I did quite a bit of writing, accompanied by some illustrations and visual tricks. It is meant to be difficult to read, but not difficult to understand as it is focused around moments which a lot of us have likely experienced.

About Me
Hello, my name is Karla Erasmus and I’m an industrial designer currently practicing in Vancouver BC, located on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. I graduated from Emily Carr University of Art and Design in May 2023.

Scope of Work
Over the past few years I’ve become familiar with a variety of materials and process and types of design. I’ve worked with wood, textiles, and metal as my primary materials but I love to explore unfamiliar materials. In addition to traditional design (furniture and product) I’m also interested in jewelery design as well as engaging in speculative and critical design.
