DESIGN

I am Audrey Lingstuyl, a strategic designer & researcher infusing calm into design.

With a background in communications, semiotics, and interaction design, I have specialized in design strategy and research.

My journey, spanning 16 years, includes a Ph.D. focused on designing for calm, and extensive experience working across diverse sectors, from NGOs and government organizations to education, wellness, hospitality, retail, and the arts.

I am driven by a passion for designing meaningful change, creating innovative, calming, and healthier experiences.

I’ve had the opportunity to lead and contribute to numerous projects in various settings—creative agencies, freelancing, co-founding ventures, and in-house positions—gaining valuable insights along the way.

I love untangling complex problems and advocating for users. I thrive when collaborating with teams to design and develop thoughtful experiences that resonate on a personal level.

  • Exploring how interaction design can improve well-being through materiality and attention management.

  • Introducing speculative design into schools for positive change amid the environmental crisis.

  • Implementing a design thinking approach to foster integration between refugees and locals.

  • Creating a gastronomic design lab to experiment with new delivery formats.


The case studies presented here are just a glimpse of my recent work. I am eager to delve into more projects and share detailed case studies during a call.
