About Rose tandem

Welcome to our creative world! 

 

I've always needed to create to maintain balance—painting, drawing, or simply playing with colours helps me step back, refocus, and generate new ideas. Over time, I wanted to add a new dimension to my work as a designer, one that was more hands-on, more human.​

​

Also wanting to be more present for my parents, who are over 80 years old, I looked for a meaningful way to share time and projects with them. My mother, passionate about knitting and sewing, and my father, with his extensive experience in textiles and sewing machine repair, combined our talents.

​​

From this collaboration was born "Rose Tandem," a family project combining creativity, nature, and intergenerational connection. 

• "Rose" evokes nature and beauty, and includes the word "ose," a symbol of boldness and vitality at any age.

• "Tandem" symbolizes the power of "doing things together"—because with two (or more!), it's always more inspiring.

​

This project brings together my mother's unique knitted creations and my own artistic works, transformed into various products such as bags, cards, accessories, etc.

​

Rose Tandem is an artistic and natural extension of the design profession, proving that creativity doesn't fade with age. It is also our family project: unique, handmade creations crafted with love, where our expertise and joy of sharing come together.

 

We will be showcasing our work at our first Christmas market on November 29, 2025, and you can follow our latest news on our website or via our newsletter (sign up at the bottom of this page) or through my Instagram account @karine.b.design (aka Rose Tandem).
