Katrin Koch-Maasing Email & Phone Number

With nearly 20 years of experience, I have built a career that spans two distinct and highly specialized fields: historical clothing creation and barefoot shoe design. As the founder and leader of Tige Tikker OÜ, I have successfully managed projects that involve creating historically accurate clothing for museums and private collections. This work requires meticulous research, thorough understanding of historical contexts, and an unwavering attention to detail to ensure every piece reflects its period accurately.Separately, I am also the visionary behind No(N)s, a brand dedicated to designing and producing high-quality, handcrafted barefoot shoes and boots. Our footwear focuses on minimalist design, maximum comfort, and sustainability. Each pair is crafted from premium materials, ensuring durability and repairability. They feature hydrophobic leather construction with a wide toe box and narrow heel, adhering to the principles of barefoot footwear, and are loved by a diverse clientele, from professors and students to children and grandparents.Balancing these two areas of expertise requires thorough research, meticulous attention to detail, and well-reasoned decisions in each domain. My dual roles allow me to approach each project with a unique perspective and dedication to both historical accuracy and contemporary functionality.Let’s connect and explore opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and mutual growth in the fields of historical clothing and barefoot footwear design.
