Daniëlle graduated cum laude from the Design Academy Eindhoven in . After years of balancing between design and functionality, she embraced a more intuitive, material-led practice.

Her chosen medium is leather, a material with history, memory, and soul. “Every piece of leather feels like a new beginning,” she says. This dialogue with the material defines her work: a dance between control and surrender, precision and spontaneity. Each piece bears her emblem, but also her fingerprint, in texture, emotion, and the beauty of perfect imperfection.
