Antonia Fischer (de) is a designer and researcher drawn to objects, spaces and the personal connections that sit between them. 

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

She holds 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.

She is currently living and working in London.

03Making Room for Grief

2025
Publication

170 x 250 mm
Coptic binding

Making Room for Grief is a hand-bound publication accompanying the chair: five essays and an archive of tracings cast from objects in her grandparents' home, each held alongside the memorird tied to it. Sitting at the intersection of material practice and personal archive, it moves between the research and the deeply personal. 

The cover is a ghost-print etching of the chair's backrest, taken before the steel was bent into form, impossible to recreate, mirroring the ephemeral nature of the work itself.
