Bio

Rachel Wingfield is a Research Fellow and Lecturer on the MA Textile Futures course at Central Saint Martins, School of Fashion and Textiles.

After graduating from the RCA in 2002 Rachel setup the design and research studio Loop.pH to create and develop new and reactive surfaces and structures. She has worked on architectural and fashion commissions to product design and conducts an extensive range of research activities collaborating with industry and multi-disciplinary groups.

Rachel has fabricated reactive surfaces for a variety of environments, from the public to the domestic and the reworking of familiar objects has become a vehicle to communicate her ideas to a wide audience.

Through Loop.pH Rachel has exhibited internationally with the British Council and at furniture fairs and shows in Amsterdam, Milan, Tokyo, New York, Valencia, Istanbul, Stockholm and Moscow. Her work has been shown at the Design Museum and V&A Museum in London, where Digital Dawn is now part of the permanent textile collection.
