mezza matta's artist and designer, julia kuschner, has been ruining her good clothes with paint for as long as her mom can remember. she comes from a family of ecclectic artists who wish they could do nothing but fill the world with bright colors.

instead they manage to fill the walls, floors and laundry with them.

julia makes her home in san francisco, but has lived all over the united states and has traveled extensively throughout europe, asia, mexico, the carribean, disneyland and the west indies in search of strange objects to glue on walls.

mezza matta means 'half crazy' in italian, but we're not implying anything there about julia...
