Reclaiming creativity: Filippa Malmegård
Filippa is a maker of things and of maker community. An empowering D.I.Y (do-it-yourself) experience in 2011 connected her to a ‘maker mindset’ and made her discover the D.I.Y blogosphere. She found herself intrigued by the possibility of interbreeding locally sourced ‘scrap’ materials with globally sourced ‘hack’ ideas. Wanting to develop and promote this connection, she set up ScrapHacker.com, a blog devoted to applied “D.I.Ysign” thinking.
