Introduction
I am Alessandro Haas, born in 1986 in Backnang, Germany, and today living with my family in the wilderness of North Karelia, Finland. We have two children, two horses, and a cat. Our everyday life unfolds between forest, workshop, desk, and family life.
This website grew out of my work on the biography of my grandfather, Josef Haas. Over time, it has developed into a place where family history, book design, and personal projects come together.
