Welcome dear friend, to the ‘Dare to dream big’ podcast. My name is Anastasia Dimitriadou and in these sessions I invite you to join me and my amazingly creative guests for some raw, unedited conversations about what it really takes—behind the scenes—to make your dreams come true.
Today you’re listening to Lawrence Ebelle from Curated Works.
Lawrence is an educated architect but comes with so many more talents, she really knows how to use her hands and makes stunning paper flowers, is into book binding, plays instruments, she works as designer, works with interior, makes signs, published a book and is also an artist in a way.
She started her journey in the USA and then came to Denmark and basically never left. She talks about how it was to start out in a foreign country, having no connections and being surrounded with a lot of competition.
Coming from the museum world, she wanted to curate places but then decided to go to signage school which gave her a competitive advantage I would say and then got more and clients to work with by simply walking into a store, asking them if they needed help with anything.
Trusting her skills, she got to experiment and try new things while always keeping in mind to deliver on the promise.
It comes so natural to her now but she says that she wasn’t always this way, it wasn’t until one day a mentor of her told her to toughen up and be more out there.
Another huge learning moment for her was when she got fired from her dream job and you’ll hear what this experience enabled her to do.
We then go to talking about her upbringing, her background where she learned about values such as loyalty and discipline, where religion played a big role and although she learned that being polite is a good thing, she was never afraid to speak her mind.
We also talk about how she discovered architecture for herself where a certain teacher influenced her and later on it was another professor who also made a huge impact on her work and you will hear why, it made me cry.
She is such an analogue woman and we talk about her relationship with her hands and how it just makes her happy and finally we talk about Lawrence’s dream of having a studio of her own with more people who make her visions come to life.
