Episode 32 of Making Meaning is with designer and all-round creative powerhouse Zoe Murphy. Zoe works with colourful screen prints to transform old furniture into amazing, meaningful pieces. We talk about her multi-faceted creative life, about connecting and sharing creative joy and about how storytelling and research are fundamental to how she works.
Furniture and textile designer Zoe Murphy promotes the idea of ‘Loving what belongs to you’ by screen-printing colour and pattern onto recycled interior objects, often using imagery inspired by her seaside hometown of Margate in Kent. With a fascination for the feel-good potential of re-use and rejuvenation, she works closely with the idea of encouraging others to consume more carefully and with more responsibility.

Find Your Focus
Finding Your Focus is an holistic & mindful approach reviewing your year and thinking about your creative life. We cover core values and why you do what you do, review the last year, decide your own criteria for success and only then create your gentle goals or guiding lights which will give you focus over the year. This workshop includes 5 pre-recorded video lessons and accompanying workbooks.
