About

Hello! I'm Josefien, a multidisciplinary designer based in London, with a focus on furniture and product design. I'm insatiably curious about how stories, materials, and objects shape our everyday lives. My work often blends narrative, craft, and function. Fluent in English, German, and Dutch.

The Harpy is where myth meets material. Through furniture design, I explored how fragmented, often distorted stories can be translated into something tactile and present. This piece holds feminist and participatory intent, inviting narrative into form, surface, and structure. It’s a project that helped me think through what it means to design with passion, emotion, and meaning in mind. © 2025 Josefien van Marselis Hartsinck All Rights Reserved
