Paula Loos was born and raised in the small town Nibbixwoud in the Netherlands. She received a bachelor degree in Graphic Design at Graphic Lyceum in Amsterdam, but soon changed her career path, obtaining a degree at the Dutch Film en Television school in Amsterdam. Since then she has worked in the film and television industries throughout the world.
Paula’s enthusiasm for production design derives from a devotion to deliver a creative vision from the script into the reality depicted on the screen. She leads her team with energy and expresses faith in the talent of everyone with whom she works, motivating and challenging her team to think outside of the box.
As an artist in the 21st century, Paula is devoted to utilizing sustainable materials in the creation of films. Striving to make a difference, she is proud to be the first production designer to work with Emagispace (www.emagispace.com), an innovative process of building film sets with reusable building elements, for the Screen Gems/Sony film Cadaver, directed by Diederik van Rooijen and set to be released in 2017.
