ABOUT CHLOE
I'm a freelance designer specialising in bespoke, mass-produced, and sustainable furniture and product design - with a background in technical drawings, prototyping, 3D visualisation, and supplier collaboration. I work across the full design process, from early concept development through to production, and often support projects with styling, showrooms, exhibitions, and marketing collateral where needed.
My experience spans build-to-rent, retail, residential, and hospitality sectors. I’ve previously worked with Modus Furniture and The Collective, and most recently as a designer at DEKA. Along the way, I’ve collaborated closely with specifiers, interior designers, architects, and developers to bring ideas to life.
