Elizabeth Glickfeld is a design writer and lecturer currently based in London. She’s the co-founder, along with Anna Bates, of Dirty Furniture, a new kind of design magazine that looks at “when design leaves the showroom” by focusing each issue on a specific piece of furniture. She’s also written for various publications including Eye, Design Issues, Domus, and Frieze. Previously, she was a student in The Royal College of Art’s Critical Writing in Art and Design program and was a lecturer in design theory and history at Swinburne University in Melbourne, Australia. In this episode, Elizabeth and I talk about her background in design and writing, the goals of Dirty Furniture, and experimenting with new forms of design writing.
