Taste Makers: Women In Food Design | NYCxDesign
IDSA Women in Design NYC invites you to a celebration of women industrial designers whose practice lives at the intersection of food and design. Join us at the Museum of Food and Drink for a conversation with women working at the forefront of both fields, and connect with a community of designers shaping what comes next.
After the panel, stay after for a WID NYC meet up and engage with our amazing community of women and non-binary designers. RSVP here for the meetup.
Our panelists bring perspectives that span hospitality, social innovation, and multisensory experience design:
Marjorie Artieres is a French-born Creative Director and Partner at Pinch Food Design. Trained in Industrial Design at Central Saint Martins, she brings a design-led approach to hospitality, creating immersive “food furniture” experiences that blend form, function, and flavor. Since joining Pinch in 2016, she has been shaping the company’s vision - redefining how people gather, eat, and interact through design.
Amanda Huynh is a food and product designer focused on social innovation, community-building, and sustainable futures. Her work explores food design as a tool for dignity, participation, and care and her research spans topics in aging, co-design, and embodied play. She has taught and lectured internationally and currently leads the Industrial Design major area as an Associate Professor in the Department of Design at The Ohio State University.
Emilie Baltz has spent over 20 years pioneering multisensory experience design in America. Her work, shown at the Cooper Hewitt, the New Museum, and the Museum of the Future in Dubai, starts from the premise that the most powerful experiences are designed for all the senses. She is the author of the award-winning L.O.V.E FOODBOOK and a founding faculty member of the Products of Design MFA at the School of Visual Arts.
Moderated by WID NYC Co-Chair Hannah Berkin-Harper.
This panel, created in partnership with the MOFAD, is part of a collaborative series between IDSA NYC and WID NYC, using the five senses as a framework to explore how sensory-driven approaches shape the way we experience, interpret, and design the world around us.
