BIO
Siobhan's work focuses on clean shapes, material sustainability, and ease of function. She designs and fabricates her pieces based on the idea of comfort made personal, and believes that products should tell stories and create a sense of home and solace. Siobhan finds that textiles provide immense comfort and frequently uses them in her work when focusing on both design and art.
CAPSTONE PROJECT
SOFT STRUCTURE
Through an exploration of the interaction between textiles and furniture, I aimed to create a collection embodying a comforting and restful domestic experience, replicating the benefits of an embrace.
This collection includes a lounge pod, a weighted blanket and a body pillow.
In order to reduce stress and create a safe environment in which a user can relax, pressure, texture and colour have been applied within the Soft Structure Collection.
