(Senior Research Tutor, )

Carolina is an architect, designer, and researcher whose practice lies at the intersection of architecture, living systems, and critical technologies.

Carolina Ramirez-Figueroa develops creative methodologies that integrate living systems into design practices, fostering new understandings of relationality, materiality, and temporality. Through her research, Carolina seeks to create transformative experiences that provoke critical discussions on the role of design in shaping sustainable and inclusive futures.

She is a Senior Research Tutor in Information Experience Design (IED) at The Royal College of Art. She leads the Interspecies Entanglements studio, which explores how design can serve as a transformative agent by acknowledging and addressing all forms of material and environmental injustice, particularly the structural racism and extraction that have driven us into a permacrisis. Her work calls for a re-evaluation of economies, politics, and ethics through more-than-human relations, promoting respectful engagement with non-humans to reshape how we coexist.

Carolina's work explores possibilities for both desirable and cautionary futures, advocating for more-than-human ethics that foster mutual care and collaboration across species. She has led numerous research projects, partnerships, and exhibitions within the RCA, advancing interdisciplinary dialogues in design and ecology.

We are continually adding to our diverse programme of events: conversations on key topics such as funding advice and portfolio development, symposia, exhibitions, open days and more. Many are free and open to the public.
