With an academic background in arts and design but raised in a family of engineers, her designs are intuitive yet mathematical.

After graduating college with a degree in textile crafts, Sakina dabbled into the magical world of garment production and fashion. A lucky chance led her to an exhange program to Japan, which re-established her curiosity in textiles, specifically structure designing. She is now based in the dynamic town of Bandung, Indonesia, and works on several projects, including topics such as e-textiles and new material.
