Louisa Carmona is a Swiss designer based in Belgium. She immersed herself in textile research after completing a Bachelor's degree in Industrial Design at ECAL — University of art and design in Lausanne and working alongside the Zurich-based designer Jörg Boner. She explored ancient spinning and weaving techniques with crafts·wo·men in Argentina and Benin. This experience, combined with a Master in Textile Design from ENSAV La Cambre in Brussels influenced her approach to textile and materials-focused design. Her work transforms textiles into interactive artefacts, focusing on the connections materials form. At the Swiss Center for Design and Health, she is developing a library and platform for materials as an external consultant, advancing research on material act and ecosystems.
