Ewelina is an artist and designer born in Poland and currently living in Western France. After studying architecture in Poland, she worked in interior design offices for years until she finally found her own, which she successfully ran for over ten years. She has participated in many different projects: from designing residences, through hotel design, to designing yachts. She was always very sensitive to art, had several exhibitions of her own paintings, and was constantly looking for new forms of expressing her emotions and the beauty of life itself. She comes from a family of talented women with strong personalities. She remembers her grandmother sitting in front of the sewing machine after work until late at night, earning extra money for the family. She remembers finding beautiful, unique clothes in her mother's closet, sewn by her grandmother. Her mother taught her to knit and sew when she was little because she was very interested in it. In this way, as far as she can remember, she always managed to create a dress for a special party or make wool socks and a sweater for the winter. It was very natural for her. In her work she was always looking for something that would allow her to translate emotions into art. After moving to France, she decided not to return to her familiar work pattern, but to allow herself to rediscover her love of creating in a way that would give her a greater sense of closeness and unity with what she does. Thoughts of her grandmother, with whom she still has an exceptionally strong bond, led her to the sewing machine and everything related to textiles. Thus began a wonderful journey of discovering various ways of communicating with thread.

À bientôt manifesto
À bientôt was born out of a great appreciation for art and a nostalgic love for classic craftsmanship. Ewelina approaches the tradition of working with fabrics with respect. In her products we will not find fashionable patterns or complicated fabric compositions. On the contrary, we can find fabric woven in a way that will bring us memories from our childhood home. She reaches for traditional techniques, fabrics with a natural composition and places them in a new reality. So that what is authentic does not lose its quality. Each new project is carefully thought out in this spirit, and the colors, textures and patterns are selected in such a way that they tell a story and capture emotions. She manufactures using the most natural and sustainable materials. All products are organic and handmade by her and a small team of women artisans. Ewelina is deeply attached to eco-responsible values of her creations, as this is what is consistent with her lifestyle that aims to limit overconsumption. Collections are produced in small batches. Ewelina also offers a tailor-made service for many of her pieces.
