ABOUT CLAUDIA

To design sustainable solutions that produce the greatest impact for our society, we must recognise the complex systems that we live in. Be it the NHS, housing, education or the built environment, we live and work in systems that are essentially made up of human relationships within a given setting.

​

My focus has always been on people. What drives them? What changes them? What inspires them? From my Philosophy degree through to studying Psychoanalysis and focusing on Healthcare, the complexities of human systems and relationships have been at the core of my work.

​

Most recently my work has looked at the phenomenology of illness - the lived experience of having a life-threatening diagnosis. No matter how much we empathise, we can never truly know what this is like unless we experience it ourselves. This is why codesign and codevelopment are both so powerful and essential in designing our post-COVID health system.
