Scarlett is a Material Researcher and Designer investigating environmental and social narratives embedded within industrial systems. Working across design and material innovation, their practice explores the hidden impacts of mining, mineral processing, and global supply chains, questioning the systems that shape our material world.

Through research-led experimentation with industrial by-products and overlooked resources, Scarlett reimagines material possibilities. Their work utilises material residues for processed outcomes that challenge conventional ideas of transparency and regeneration while highlighting the relationship between extraction/consumption and environments.

By bridging critical research with material development, Scarlett creates work that fosters greater responsibility within production systems and proposes more circular futures rooted in resource awareness and environmental accountability.
