︎︎︎︎︎︎︎︎︎ Toni Wagner ︎︎︎ she/her/they ︎︎︎ a designer, researcher, storyteller, learner, feminist, maker – born and raised on a farm in the German south, I embrace a practical working-class background that follows a deep curiosity to untangle intuitively felt struggles.
Holding a BA in Interaction Desgin and MA in Critical Design Research I use a process-based design lens to improve workflows, organise systems and explore solutions in a collaborative, tactile way.
My practice is situated at the intersection of design research, storytelling, (user) experience design and facilitation. My methods aim to actively translate relationships between critical theory, interdisciplinary- and everyday-practices to a broad audience, aiming to explore different formats from product development to writing, programming and hosting.
︎︎︎︎︎︎︎︎︎apart from having my own practice I co-founded ︎︎︎︎︎︎︎︎︎ MORGÄSTUDIO ︎︎︎ Inspired by daily mundane practices of mending, preserving, writing and sharing stories the studio researches the relation between design and classism from a critical, socio-political perspective, and focusing on bringing lived experiences, mindsets and struggles of marginalised bodies to create new narrations and audiences into the academic discourse.
︎︎︎︎︎︎︎︎︎my work would be nothing without being in inspiring proximity with, and influence under these talented people ︎︎︎︎︎︎ @monjasimon @sophboobyer @simonmoog @myrnadebruijn @anaschao @mariapaloma @lizawillemsen @olgakorosteleva
