About
I am a regenerative designer, seeking to use design as a means of bringing about system and landscape change for the benefit of ecosystems, species and places. I get excited about material culture, local traditions and how we can make in ways that embrace natural systems.I have a background in industrial design, previously working as a design consultant on innovation and sustainability projects.
From the Fens, With the Fens, For the Fens
Paludiculture is the practice of farming on rewetted peat, with an elevated water table closer to the ground’s surface. It has the potential to reduce the degradation of peat soils and CO₂ emissions whilst still cultivating the land and supporting fen biodiversity. There are currently no commercial paludicultural sites in the UK, but it presents an opportunity to rethink the way we interact with land in the Cambridgeshire Fens. ‘From the Fens, With the Fens, For the Fens’ uses paper artefacts made from potential paludicultural crops to tell playful stories of interconnection and changing values, whilst demonstrating the potential commercial properties of these novel crops.
