On Stage Design Indaba 2013: Marguerite Humeau

Marguerite Humeau is a speculative designer and director of a design trilogy. At Design Indaba Conference 2013, the French designer spoke about using design to reconnect and communicate with unreachable forms of life.

After graduating from the Royal College of Art, Humeau set out to revive the sound of prehistoric animals. After she sent hundreds of letters consulting scientists, explorers, zoologists and pathologists, she began her project titled Proposal for Resuscitating Prehistoric Creatures, which seeks to recreate extinct animals for a contemporary environment.
