I'm Laura Lucía Torres, MA cand. Interdisciplinar Design based in Germany. My overall work as designer reflects my concern for the challenges we face today— I focus on sustainability, social impact, and ethical branding. My experience has been focused on providing design and consultancy for food brands through advertising agencies, tech companies and culinary brands at an international level.
Over the years, I’ve developed a critical perspective on design, and now I use that to question the norms and flip the script on how we think about products and brands in our daily lives. Currently, I’m working on my master’s thesis in Interdisciplinary Design Research at TH Köln, where I dive into the political and cultural layers of food systems. I explore food from every angle—ethnic, cultural, natural, and geographical. Recently, I had the opportunity to share one of my projects on permaculture at the Food Design Fest 24 in Madrid, Spain, which was an exciting and rewarding experience.
I also bring art into the mix, with music, ceramics, illustrations, and photography playing a big part in my creative process. My work sits at the intersection of design, research, and art, aiming to inspire reflection on the act of consumption as a whole.
