ABOUT

Typewriter poetry activation in New York City

The art of typewriter poetry is about making sense of the human experience. Think of your thoughts and emotions as a ball of yarn. The work of the poet is to untangle them, brush them, and weave them into a shape that makes perfect sense. The result: tears shed, and hugs given, thoughtful words and meaningful friendships.

I’ve worked with luxury brands and studios in New York to design poetry activations that create moments of intimacy with guests, giving them a keepsake they will cherish forever.

  • "Sofia’s leadership extended beyond concept and material development, the management of production timelines, and the oversight of execution across all participating locations. The typewriter poetry activation required a high degree of sensitivity to brand context, as well as the ability to deliver a consistent experiential quality within environments characterized by both operational complexity and elevated client expectations. In our experience, it is rare to encounter individuals capable of navigating the intersection of artistic authorship, experiential design, and luxury brand positioning with such precision. Ms. Kavlin’s contribution ensured that the poetry activation functioned as an authentic extension of Brunello Cucinelli’s cultural ethos, enriching the client experience while reinforcing the brand’s commitment to meaningful artistic engagement.."
