Background
Studioilse is a London design studio founded by designer Ilse Crawford. The studio's official profile describes Crawford as a designer, teacher, creative director and founder, and says she also founded the Man and Wellbeing department at Design Academy Eindhoven and led it for two decades.
Signature Style
Studioilse describes its approach as humanistic design: addressing true human needs rather than manufactured ones, with positive mental and environmental impact. The studio calls this design as a frame for life and describes itself as values-driven, working with rigour and integrity.
Notable Works
Herman Miller credits Studioilse with Betwixt Chairs; the manufacturer identifies Ilse Crawford and Oscar Peña of Studioilse as the designers of the Betwixt seating family. The studio's official profile also describes its practice across interiors, product design and objects.
Legacy
The official Studioilse profile describes a fourteen-person team. Its workplace is the Neckinger Mills Studio in Bermondsey, London, a Grade II-listed former tannery with a materials workshop and kitchen.
