ABOUT FAINA

Since the old times , people could feel the nature. They were guided by the sky, listened to birds, spoke with the threes. The desire tot revive this mysterious connection to a living world led us to FAINA – live minimalistic design that embodies the powerful energy of the earth.

Established in 2014, FAINA- the collection of furniture , lightning and decor, is part of a multidisciplinary studio YAKUSHA by Ukrainian architect Victoria Yakusha. Deeply inspired by. Ukrainian culture and traditions, Victoria is associated with contemporary Ukrainian design. Victoria’s architecture and interiors stand. out by a laconic, but sensual approach. They are full of textures engaging all the senses and encouraging to feel the soul of the objects. Clay, wood, willow, wool are the main elements Victoria works with, that help her to express nature of “live design” - design with a powerful energy of materials and telling its owner a unique story behind. The mission of FAINA is to pass the story on. Tradition and nature of Victoria’s mother land revive in a contemporary design collection.

In 2018 Victoria launched “Land inspires” - the first design expedition in the history of Ukraine that draws attention to the unique craft techniques and cultural heritage of her motherland. With her design and this expedition she puts Ukraine on the map of design countries.
