About me
Photo by Annelene Erdlenbruch
Hi, I'm Tara Winkelmann!
I'm an interaction designer with a focus on emotional storytelling and tactile experiences that invite curiosity. My work blends physical objects and digital tools, often shaped by subtle emotions or a touch of humour. I believe the best moments come when something feels familiar, yet surprises you in unexpected ways.
