Hello, I’m Wietske Nutma. I’m a multidisciplinary designer and researcher with a focus on ecology and the more-than-human – in an effort to find ways to contribute to the living world. I spend most of my time working for Zoöp at the Zoönomic Institute, and various other projects at Nieuwe Instituut.

I also work a lot with textile, wool and other fibers, whilst thinking, learning and researching cloth making and repair.

Merchant and Mill's Florence Top

22.02.2026
This top has been on my to-make list for a while. I was inspired by the buttons on these bed sheets I have from IKEA. Every time I looked at the cloth covered buttons I thought that it would be so cute if they could be used as a button closure for a shirt of the same fabric. That's almost a year ago now, but my top is finally finished. I just have to wait for warmer weather to wear it now.
