ABOUT ONE FLOOR UP

One Floor Up is a collection of smart products, bright ideas and fresh approaches.

 

This blog is my personal collection of objects, ideas and applications that I consider to be interesting and noteworthy. It focuses on new ideas and ways of thinking that are exciting and inspirational. It is my own take on the meaning of innovation.

 

The editorial section of this site is a series of observations and opinions of the world based on my experience as a designer. Some of the topics include What took them so long?, Whoever invented... is my hero and Products that make me happy.

ABOUT KATRIKA

Some people collect spoons. I collect good ideas.

 

I am an industrial designer who currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. I am originally from Canada but have spent a good portion of my life living in other countries. I like to travel as much as possible in pursuit of new experiences and perspectives.

 

Here are 5 interesting facts about me:

  1. I graduated high school with an Ontario diploma without ever taking a single class in Ontario.
  2.  

  3. I stopped playing the Sims 2 because my favorite Sims were old and I didn't want them to die (they had already drank about 100 coolers worth of Elixir of Life).
  4.  

  5. I'm not very good with left and right directions. Left and the other left are more my style.
  6.  

  7. I have an autographed picture of Marc Garneau on my desk.
  8.  

  9. I often contemplate on how much money I would get for my cat if I sold her to the Moscow Cat Circus. I think she would fit in well.
