Work in an agency or company has a fast pace. There isn`t always time to experiment with new techniques to make good work or a good product even better. The hands-on, intensive, In-House workshops (or Virtual) provide effective techniques and insights into working with structures and folding techniques, many of which can become innovative starting points for creative work, and provide a valuable perspective from which to deal with design briefs. The In-House workshops (or Virtual) are tailored to the specific needs of the group and its creative focus and are structured to expand the participant`s skill set. The content is flexible so it is even possible to design one that fits the training needs of the team. Kristina provides individual guidance on each person`s project and all participants will receive a workbook with crease pattern, and a certificate.

In addition, each team member receives an official certificate they can be proud of, signed by the folding expert and trainer Kristina.
How will your team benefit from an In-House workshop?
If you are already working on designs with folds or want to incorporate folds into existing designs, it is important to learn about different folding techniques and how to construct crease patterns. If everyone on your team isn't up to par in their skills and knowledge, your creative output won't perform as well and the outcome won't reach its full potential.
A personal workshop with Kristina Wißling unlocks the full potential with folding techniques and structures, allowing you and your team to raise the level of your folding technique work in less than a day.
And this is how it works: Kristina Wißling works with your company and leads a tailor-made workshop for your team. During the workshop everyone will learn a repeatable process that can be used to create custom folds that serve your company's focus (design, research, product development). You will learn tools and techniques and a clear framework to do good work consistently.
