Lara Haamers
Studio Manager

Oiling the wheels of Factorr as an organization, so that creative juices can flow smoothly.
A craving for planning and organizing paired with my love for creativity brought me to Factorr. My background in (fashion) design made it a good, unique match.
As a child, I always knew I wanted to design clothing. I really loved my fashion design studies at Willem de Kooning academy. This university boasts an interdisciplinary approach, promoting collaboration between different fields, such as photography, illustration, etc. Here I started to learn about other creative fields.
Working as a store manager for many years made me realize I have other skills that I enjoy, besides designing clothing - namely, problem-solving, prioritizing, and organizing daily and monthly planning. I have always loved to create a logical home for everything, as well as in files on the computer, as in my personal space, where I keep objects/notes, etc. in the perfect sensible spot.
I'm thrilled to join the Factorr team, because my inspiration flourishes when I'm surrounded by creative people. My goal is to develop myself as a great studio manager and learn as much as possible about the world of Spatial Design.
