Design & Belonging

Designer, educator, and researcher exploring how design shapes identity, well-being, and the spaces we inhabit.

  • Marssaié works across design, education, and research, exploring how design shapes identity, wellbeing, and belonging.

    Her practice sits at the intersection of design and culture, informed by a vibrant Caribbean lens and shaped by lived experience across culturally rich environments, including the Caribbean and Malaysia. This perspective informs how she approaches context, heritage, and the ways people connect to ideas, environments, and each other.
