🌎 Committed Listener for the MIT Media Lab Course How to Grow (Almost) Anything 2024.


I am a passionate Interdisciplinary Designer, Researcher and Biodesigner looking at the opportunities in blurring the lines between nature, architecture and design.

My work focuses on working with living organisms like mycelium, algae or bacteria, seeking solutions and innovation that promote collaboration with nature integrating scientific research and material study.

- BA Hons Architecture at Newcastle University (UK)

- MArch Bio-Integrated Design (Bio-ID) at the Bartlett, UCL (UK)

I am currently a Senior Scientist at the University of Innsbruck in the faculty of Experimental Architecture, creating new studio - Integrative Design | EXTREMES, where I am teaching and leading research projects seeking innovative and sustainable solutions to enhance regenerative design in the Built Environment,.

Focusing on digital fabrication and assembly of biomaterials my research focus on multi-material, biohybrid systems. On daily basis, I work across laboratory, design studio and workshop, integrating biological processes, living organisms within design application though novel technologies and means of fabrication, with 3D printing or robotics.

I would love to link with like-minded people! So I am looking forward to connect and I am open for collaboration!
