Yoanna was only with us for a month back in the Summer of 2007. Her internship wasn’t planned – she just happened to call up on a day when a new opportunity had opened up. Even so, she was a great person to have in the studio – she’s French but has lived in Austria, Switzerland, Israel and Australia so she brought a real multi-cultural perspective to her work (she also left us with a kicking Euro-pop playlist on the server).
After her time at Prime she finished her Bachelor diploma at ECAL in Switzerland and won 2nd prize with it at the Biennale de St. Etienne. She moved to Paris last year and worked as a freelance designer specializing in perfumes and cosmetics (Kenzo, Nina Ricci etc..). Currently she’s a designer at the agency CarréBasset which specializes in luxury products such as perfumes, cosmetics and liquors.
Yoanna also writes a blog, About Foood, about, what else ?! – food and design. Some of her well considered design work can also be seen on her personal site.
