Making Room for Grief
Levit

Antonia Fischer (b. Munich, Germany), designer and researcher drawn to objects, spaces and the personal connections that sit between them.

Rooted in phenomenology and a deep curiosity for materiality, my practice investigates how perception, objects and environments work together to reveal the way we live. Through making and writing, I explore the 'felt-space', reflecting on how the spaces we inhabit and the objects around us shape our everyday experience.

I hold an MA in Interior and Spatial Design from the University of the Arts London, as well as a BA in Product Design from the University of Applied Design Schwäbisch Gmünd.

I am currently based in London.

Making Room For Grief

2025

Publication

170 x 250 mm
Coptic bound

Making Room for Grief is a hand-bound publication accompanying the research on grief in spaces. It collects essays reflecting on materiality and loss, on how objects hold memory and surfaces carry absence, alongside an inventory of tracings cast from objects in her grandparents' home, each paired with the personal memory attached to it.

The publication functions as a 2D archive, sitting at the intersection of material practice and personal record, moving between research and the deeply personal shifts that shaped the project.
