Tanja Kirst

anja Kirst is a textile designer whose artistic and research-led practice explores the emotional potential of textiles and colour. Her work focuses on subtle transitions, gradients, and refined details that evoke visual and tactile narratives.
Trained in both traditional craftsmanship and industrial production, she merges design and sustainability through an experimental use of circular materials, creating textiles that evolve meaningfully over time.
She currently runs her own studio and works as a colour specialist at ACT Architectural Colour Tools, developing plant-based pigments and leading workshops on applied colour theory.
