She/Her

is a french designer based in Belgium. She graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven, NL. Her practice is based on empirical and empathic research and often results in creating tools, methods or experiences, rather than ready-made solutions. In her work, she uses hacks and subversion in an attempt to shift our relationship with technology.

She also wonders what design can do to challenge our beliefs & habits in a finite, ecologically threatened world. She prefers to work with open-source resources, re-purposed materials, energy-aware approaches and DIY techniques. Previous projects take the form of websites, objects, instruments, publications & installations among others. She works as a designer with LOW←TECH MAGAZINE. Previously, she collaborated with Écume Studio (Nov 2022) and Onomatopee (May 2021).
