Stella is a material and product designer exploring the future of materials and our evolving relationship with them. With a background in fiber arts, she began by working closely with the raw ingredients of clothing—spinning, dyeing, and understanding their origins. Later, her time at corporate fashion companies challenged her to think more critically about the lifecycle of products and the systems behind them. In response to the endless consumerism in the context of the climate crisis, her latest work shifts focus toward biodegradable and bio-based materials like seaweed, algae yarn, mycelium, and fish skin. Her work now aims to bridge the worlds of science and consumers through product and textile design.
