Dr Franziska Pilling
Lecturer
Interior Design
Franziska Pilling is a design researcher and lecturer in Design at Manchester Metropolitan University. Her research falls within the broader realm of Speculative Design, which involves blending actual and potential advancements in emerging technologies while considering the cultural context in which they could be applied. This approach is manifested as 'research through design'.
