Studio Meineck was founded in 2016 by Chloe Meineck to foster and develop collaboration around her projects.
Chloe Meineck started creating multidisciplinary work whilst studying Design and Craft at the University of Brighton. She created the first Music Memory Box back in 2011. After graduating in 2012, she exhibited her work at 100% Design and Tent London, with coverage in Wired and Design Milk. Since then she’s been on many national and international residencies developing her work.
Most notably, she was one of Crafts Council’s Craft and Technology Residents, Designer in Residence at the Design Museum (2013) and in 2015, she developed her work on an artist residency at KIITO in Kobe, Japan. In 2016, she spoke on the ‘Calm tech and Subtle Interfaces’ panel at SXSW: Interactive. Since 2014, she has been a resident at the Pervasive Media Studio at the Watershed, Bristol where her studio is based.
Studio Meineck has a strong multidisciplinary team developing and bringing Music Memory Box into production. Music Memory Box is Studio Meineck’s first product.
The work of Studio Meineck combines craft, co-design and interactive technologies to create well-considered electronic products. The studio’s design is influenced by emotionally durable design, cradle to cradle methodologies, calm technologies and subtle interfaces.
Studio Meineck creates an atmosphere of collaboration, co-design, invention and creating ideas for social good.
