Bello Horizonte, Brazil: Patricia Naves started Oiti Designs in 2004, but attributes her passion for design to her small apartment growing up. Her mother thinks that her small bedroom made her aware of space from an early age. When she was 18, she moved to Australia for a year. There, she was impressed with the wide open spaces and large sidewalks. She returned to Brazil then enrolled in University at the School of Architecture, UFMG. In her second year, she spend a semester in Finlan where she became enamored with Scandinavian architecture and design. The aesthetic resonated with her so much, she fused the two styles from Scandinavia and Brazil. Patricia is currently studying design in Finland.
