Laura Shumaker founded Oplossing Design to help product visionaries cross from early design or prototype to full-scale production.
Oplossing, in Dutch, means “solution,” but we like the particular way the word evokes loosening a knot or untangling a challenge.
As a consultancy, we specialize in developing soft goods products, with services in materials development, process development, and, for very special projects, full-service product development. With deep expertise in all aspects of soft goods design & production as well as a wide network of mills, producers, related consultancies, and Asia-based suppliers, Oplossing Design helps its clients trace the path between worldly constraints to make satisfying end products, the way weft threads are held by warp constraints to make a woven fabric.
