Heidi is an industrial designer and maker. Her practice is shaped by a respect for artisanal processes and the quiet strength of one-off pieces, where material integrity and considered craftsmanship are central.

She specialises in marquetry and gilding—historic disciplines now less commonly practised—using traditional techniques to create contemporary objects.
Inspired by Art Nouveau and the Rinpa school, Heidi's marquetry centres on the natural world, drawing on botanical, animal, and organic forms as recurring subjects.
