Anouska Anquetil
Anouska is a regenerative design and futures specialist. She helps organisations, cities and communities explore solutions (designs, services, systems, strategies) that restore ecological, social and economic wellbeing, by designing for positive impact. Integrating natural and indigenous systems, design psychology, and ethical technology to foster resilience and prosperity, through systems and behaviour change and ecological stewardship.
Whilst her regenerative practice framework addresses internal systems and strategy through a holistic approach to not only the way we design but also the company processes, culture, and values that underpin it. Regenerative practices are inherently restorative and the keystone to truly regenerative design outcomes.
In her regenerative design practice, she creates immersive installations that explore reciprocal systems through an experiential and educational lense. As well as living structures and architecture, regenerative public realm and community place-based design and landscapes, regenerative interior spaces and residential retrofit - all designed along planet-conscious principles and bio-inspired design methodologies.
Anouska’s approach considers the impact design has upon how we experience and interact with our immediate surroundings, the systems we live within and more crucially upon the planet that sustains us. Regenerative approaches that connect us to nature's intrinsic and highly evolved living-systems design wisdom, can create valuable uplift in our wellbeing, whilst promoting a sustainable, symbiotic and restorative way of designing in harmony with our planet.
A notable designer and design strategist with an established career that spans the commercial, private and public sectors, previous roles include leading design studios and arts and culture bodies across interiors, architecture, design, and fashion. Anouska brings a wealth of experience in interdisciplinary design, premium interior architecture and fashion, design psychology and brand strategy, alongside a vision for bigger picture synergies.
She is a weaver of participation and cross-pollinator who curates and hosts talk series, lectures, judges, writes, and speaks enthusiastically about regenerative futures. Advocating to move critical conversations, collaborations, best practice, and innovation forward at pace to accelerate the design industry towards the green transition.
