FS: How did you come up with the name for this design? What does it mean?

MV: We used almost any tools in designing ... from paper and scissors to precise laser and router machines.

FS: What is the most unique aspect of your design?
MV: The most unique aspect of the hanger is the beautiful design, the good combination of materials and its versatility.

FS: Who did you collaborate with for this design? Did you work with people with technical / specialized skills?
MV: We developed the design completely by ourselves - the team of "Love 2 Design"studio.

FS: What is the role of technology in this particular design?

MV: We have done a thorough study of what is already on the market and what people would like.

FS: What are some of the challenges you faced during the design/realization of your concept?
MV: One of the great challenges was to produce the wooden details and to devise a technological way for their serial production.

FS: How did you decide to submit your design to an international design competition?
MV: Since the hanger "Sense" won the first place in the national competition for "Bulgarian Furniture of the Year" we decided to try a more global competition.

FS: What did you learn or how did you improve yourself during the designing of this work?
MV: During the design process, we encountered various questions and interesting case studies that taught us methods to refine our designs.

FS: Any other things you would like to cover that have not been covered in these questions?
MV: Without the co-operation of our entire team, the hanger design would not be a reality.
