Gabriella Nowak speaks with Julian Ellis-Brown, Co-Founder and CEO of saltyco®, a ‘materials science company that makes planet-positive textiles.’ They do this by ‘actively healing damaged ecosystems through the innovative processes and plants used to make their materials.’ Julian combines his education in Mechanical Engineering and Innovation Design Engineering to craft speculative futures for the manufacture of goods in a way that can benefit society. Julian and his saltyco Co-Founders, Finlay Duncan and Neloufar Taheri, were recognized by Forbes as members of their 2022 30 under 30 list for Manufacturing & Innovation in the UK.
We are grateful to Julian for taking time to speak with us and we are sure that this conversation will resonate with young designers and students contemplating their role in design. Make sure to like, follow, and subscribe to keep up with all of the inspiring conversations to come in season 8.
