MA work

Aim: To make the world a little fairer, kinder, and more attractive.

Ambition: To be invited onto Radio 4's Woman's Hour.

Early RCA work: An interactive queue, a urine sample container, and research into women's public toilet design.

My personal desire is to bring design back into the public sector.

Our group project, Echo, is an interactive installation for the Science Museum, addressing the future of plastics.

Veer, my individual work, is supported by Transport for London and explores urban walking, enticing people off the beaten track and into someone else's vision of the city.

Enjoy!
