Lauren Palazzi
Brand and experience-focused designer shaping how brands show up across product, storytelling, and physical space. I work at the intersection of strategy and aesthetics, translating research and business insight into thoughtful, emotionally resonant design.
With a background in Business Administration, I bring systems thinking to creative work. I am currently pursuing my MFA in Products of Design at the School of Visual Arts, where my thesis explores the decline of traditional heirlooms and reimagines how legacy, identity, and emotional context can be preserved across both physical and digital forms in an increasingly transient world.
