Founder of Akasa, a jewelry brand. Independent Designer now, was running a coffee shop. Has 5 years experience in online B2C. weibo@ 唐朝妞

Who are you and what do you do?
Hi everyone, my name is Nana. This is the very first month here working at Xindanwei. I’m now designing a piece of jewelry of universe theme. I’m gonna use natural stones and crystals. For example, this is the amethyst, this is natural turquoise. White crystal is my favorite. This kind of crystal is naturally irregular in six surface ares. I’ll name the piece AKASA. AKASA is the Sanskrit word meaning “aether” in both its elemental and metaphysical senses. It represents the feeling of unlimited in spatial extent. I probably will use it as my brand’s name/logo since it’s very popular.

What were some of the biggest challenges you faced in developing the project?
The biggest challenge is I’m in charge of almost everything! I have to do the jewelry design and production; I’m setting up a website and all kinds of promotions; not mention that whole marketing/branding and operation are all my concerns. So it’s complicated and I have to all the stuff.

How do you think coworking can help you to achieve your passion and purpose?
I think Xindanwei/coworking model helps me a lot. I’m not so good at website building and other tech stuff, but I can meet a lot of people who working on programming and online marketing here. They gave a lot of advise and help.

Akasa首饰品牌创始人,独立设计师。曾经营咖啡馆,有5年B2C网商经验,微博@ 唐朝妞 。

你好,欢迎来到新单位!请简单介绍下你自己,以及怎么会从事现在的工作。
大家好,我的名字叫娜娜。这是我成为椅子会员的第一个月,我现在正在做一件事情是做一个关于宇宙题材的首饰。这个首饰我会采用一些纯天然的石头和水晶,比如说这个是紫水晶,这个是天然的白松石。我最喜欢的是白水晶。这种是水晶,是纯天然的,没有经过打磨和切割的,它具有纯天然的六面的形状。品牌的名字我现在已经想好了,logo也设计好了,叫做A-K-A-S-A,AKASA是梵文中宇宙和虚无的意思,代表着无限延伸空间的感觉。目前来说,这个logo和这个logo是比较受欢迎的,我大概会用这个logo来作为我的品牌名称。

那在创业过程中那些是你觉得最难克服的?
最大的挑战在于我一个人要做很多很多事情,比如说包括首饰的制作,设计,拍照,还要做网站和宣传,还包括他整个品牌的运营和成效我都要考虑到。所以说涉及的方面很广,也很复杂。

你认为协作式办公模式是怎样帮助到你发挥激情完成梦想的?
我觉得新单位的椅子会员在这方面给我提供了很多的帮助。因为我个人在互联网技术这方面不是很擅长,这边有很多做程序还有网站推广这一块的,(在新单位)可以结交很多朋友,他们会给我提供一些建议和帮助。
