Born in Piatra Neamt, Romania.
Studio Andreea Mandrescu Ltd. is a design company specialising in textile, material and surface design with various applications.

The textile collections are an exploration of different materials that include faux fur, rubbers, leather and veneers on a variety of base fabrics. The fabrics are versatile, made to fit pattern garments for fashion design to being wrapped around the body as accessories. Similar range of fabrics is available for soft furnishings & upholstery.

The inlaid pieces, due to their flexibility and ease in manipulation, can be attached and wrapped around the body. The colour and the translucent quality of the material used can give the illusion of an ‘inlaid’ skin as the surface of the accessory becomes almost one with the skin, or a three dimensional extension of the skin.
