Design Across Material, Culture and Systems

I am a designer working at the intersection of technology, society and futures. My background spans fashion design, communication in social and economic contexts, and futures studies, allowing me to move between material, cultural and systemic perspectives.

My work includes independent projects, research and collaborations with cultural and public institutions such as Fondation Beyeler, SWR and Charité Berlin, alongside explorations in speculative urban design and open-source hardware.

I use these perspectives not to provide answers, but to ask better questions: making complex issues tangible, bringing different viewpoints into dialogue and exploring possibilities beyond the status quo. I see design as a way to challenge established assumptions and create space for alternative ways of thinking and acting.

AI & Alternative Futures

I am particularly interested in the cultural and political dimensions of technology: how it shapes agency, participation and responsibility, and whose futures become desirable or visible. Recent research work has focused on AI ethics and human–AI collaboration, as well as on the ways future scenarios reproduce assumptions about whose perspectives, needs and forms of knowledge become visible. Drawing on feminist philosophy of technology and critical futures research, I examine how technological futures are imagined, legitimized and contested and how they might be imagined otherwise.

Collaborative Learning & Knowledge Exchange

Alongside my independent practice, I work with cultural and public institutions on questions of experience, participation and transformation. I also facilitate workshops and collaborative processes, and mentor and teach in different settings including SINGA Business Lab, the EXIST Women founding grant program at Berlin University of the Arts and MotionLab Berlin. Combining critical thinking with hands-on experimentation, I create spaces for exploring complex questions and developing ideas together.
