Susanne Stauch lives and works in Berlin. With a background in product design, interaction design
and goldsmithing her work varies on a wide range. As a highly skilled aesthete she is focused on the
transformational aspect of design not only in terms of appearance but also in a broader sense of critical
interaction. She explores how we live with things, in which way they can change our habits or improve our
view of the world. She is driven by awakening awareness for those necessary transformations, by enabling
personal freedom and emancipation and resetting social values. This includes open design processes,
recycling and material reduction, sustainable concepts as well as social and philosophical studies.
