I am a transdisciplinary designer, artist, and researcher exploring how living materials and craft-based practices can shape more-than-human architectures. My work bridges technology, ecology, and craft, moving toward relational and regenerative practices that rethink cohabitation with overlooked species through a multispecies One Health lens.

In June 2024, I completed my PhD at the Institute of Architecture and Media at Graz University of Technology. My doctoral research was carried out at the Artificial Life Lab, Institute of Biology, University of Graz, within the FET-EU project HIVEOPOLIS.   have been part of this lab for a decade now. There, I specialized in combining digital and biological technologies to develop biohybrid structures for human and nonhuman life. The central case was the development of living mycelial beehives as biodegradable, thermally responsive, and multispecies-oriented habitats. During this five-year project, I led two key work packages: technical design and community formation.

My academic background also includes a master’s degree in computation in architecture from CITA Studio at the Royal Danish Academy. My master’s research used fused filament fabrication and advanced material design to rethink architectural spaces for nonhuman species. This combination of architectural computation, biological experimentation, and craft-based making informs my approach to design as a situated ecological practice.

I am the founder of Habitat Weaves, an interdisciplinary research platform where biohybrid architecture meets ecological restoration. Its first pilot was realised during an artist residency at the Bauhaus Foundation, where a series of ecological starter kits focused on nesting and composting were deployed. These small-scale architectures can be understood as ecological furniture or emerging material systems placed in the landscape. They test how situated interventions can support ecological regeneration while engaging local communities and contributing to regional social processes. Within Habitat Weaves, my research focuses on weaving as both material patterning and a metaphorical practice of interlacing social and ecological actors, forming multispecies habitats and landscape fabrics, fungal materials as biological substrates and nesting structures, and participatory formats for monitoring, ecological learning, and eco-social development. My design-science expertise translates complex ecological and material processes into tangible, measurable, and accessible interventions.

I currently serve as the Uni Graz principal investigator of WeB, Weaving as Worlding Practices with Earth Beings, a project that advances multispecies co-design across bioregions. The project includes co-crafting beehives with people of Sarayaku in Ecuadorian Amazonia and develops reciprocal artistic and ecological practices around weaving, habitat-making, and more-than-human collaboration.

I am committed to inclusive multispecies collaboration through Insect Worldings, a Danish NGO founded in 2025, where I serve on the founding board. The association emerged from the annual I.N.S.E.C.T. Summercamp initiative, which I co-initiated in 2022. Bringing together artists, designers, biologists, and ecological practitioners, Insect Worldings operates at the intersection of art and science.

Across my work, I approach design as experiment: a way to build, test, observe, and learn with living systems. My practice makes ecological complexity tangible and actionable, fostering a design culture that prioritizes stakeholder engagement, multispecies responsibility, and collective contribution.
