A designer, academic and creative director with a simple mission, to put human needs and desires at the center of all that she does.

As founder of Studioilse, together with her multi-disciplinary, London-based team she brings her philosophy to life. This means creating environments where humans feel comfortable; public spaces that make people feel at home and homes that are habitable and make sense for the people who live in them. It means designing furniture and products that support and enhance human behavior and actions in everyday life.
