Stories about the
people, place and environments that
shape us.

As former Editor of OnOffice and, most recently, Editor & Brand Director of WLLW, my editorial work spans architecture, interiors, design and wellbeing.

Drawing on more than two decades in the design industry, I bring an understanding of how spaces are created, detailed and experienced. Through features, interviews and long-form storytelling, I explore the ideas, materials, places and people shaping the way we live.

During my time as Editor of OnOffice, I led editorial across its print and digital platforms, covering workplace architecture, interiors and design, and produced a dedicated wellbeing issue ‘It’s in Our Nature’ exploring the relationship between our environments and our health.

OnOffice 162 (Spring 2023)

While Editor of OnOffice, I produced a dedicated print issue exploring the relationship between design, nature and wellbeing.

Issue 162 examined how the natural world influences the spaces we design and inhabit. The issue explored themes including natural materials, craftsmanship and biophilic design, alongside projects and places that reconnect people with nature - from visits with local makers to a feature on London’s tallest timber building and alpine environments shaped by the surrounding landscape. Through the issue, I explored how architecture and interiors can support healthier ways of living by bringing the qualities of the natural world both into our buildings and back into daily life.

The issue also introduced a redesigned cover format for the magazine, that I created during my time as editor. For the launch cover, I developed the concept of placing a single chair within a Canadian forest – a nod to both nature and my homeland – commissioning visual artist Karim Nabil to bring the idea to life.
