Celebrating Craft & Community

For MONC's Christmas window display, I commissioned natural-fibre artist Ella Merriman to create a large-scale rush sculpture and host an intimate workshop at the brand's Chiltern Street store. I also arranged for proceeds from the workshop and the sculpture auction to support Crisis UK, creating a meaningful Christmas activation that celebrated an endangered craft while reflecting MONC's commitment to community and thoughtful design. To document the partnership and Ella's creative practice, I visited her studio and interviewed her as part of MONC's ongoing In The Frame series.
