Ola (Alexandra) Lorens 1991-2014

We are saddened by the tragic loss of one of our Design graduates, Ola Lorens, who died recently in an accident in Amsterdam, where she was working with Studio Funki. 

There will be a memorial service for Ola Lorens in San Francisco on Saturday, October 4, at 10:30 am, at Saints Peter and Paul Roman Catholic Church (666 Filbert St, San Francisco, CA). Ola’s family asks friends and loved ones to see Ola’s memorial facebook page to organize for her funeral service and for sharing memories, as well as to offer comforting words for her family. 

The Design Department faculty and staff would like to recognize Ola’s talent and accomplishments. A creative visionary, Ola’s illustrations gained her international recognition and her departure came much too soon. Our hearts go out to her family, friends and colleagues. Please use the links to Ola’s instagram and Team Funki to see examples of her work.
