“I’m very interested in the placement of objects in space and the aesthetics of colour, shape and design,” says Aase. Of Scandinavian heritage, her background includes Art History, curating African art, yoga instruction and financial planning. With her husband, she has traveled the world and shares two children, 12 and 11. Aase works closely with clothing customers to fill their needs. From feedback and suggestions she engages in “dynamic design”. Simplicity, elegance and style for all women with various body types is the goal. “To help women of all ages feel more comfortable, confident and beautiful,” says Aase, “is a real passion for me.” |
“My idea of design is to fill a need, not create one. Through my business, I honour all women and fulfill an essential role by serving the public.
I hope my positive attitude, ability to play while working, and acceptance of aging and change, bring comfort and inspiration to my customers.”
