Madeleine Rogers set up her company mibo in 2001. Her background is in illustration, graphic and product design. Her work is driven by a wonder and awe for the natural world. She set out to communicate this passion to young audiences with a series of picture books about wildlife and with her award winning make-the-yourself paper animals.
Over the past few years her practice has continued to evolve to use design as a means to address some of the environmental and sociaI problems we now face. I recently graduated from The University of Brighton with an MA in Sustainable Design (Dist) and prior to that studied Design for Social Innovation at Kingston University. She is interested in how design can facilitate the transition to a fairer and more equitable society.
More recently she has worked on a very special project with her sister, Cathy Rogers, on a children's book called Future Vision - an optimstic and hopeful take on how we can make a good life on this pale blue dot.
