Olga Gerasim is a UK-based industrial designer working across consumer products, furniture, lighting and spatial experiences. Her practice connects research, product strategy and form development with a practical understanding of materials, prototyping and production.
She studied architecture before completing a degree in industrial design in St Petersburg, later continuing her education through the Fab Academy at the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia in Barcelona.
Before moving into product design, Olga worked in architecture for several years. She then spent close to a decade in Tokyo, developing projects from research through CAD, prototyping and production, informed by a strong engineering understanding of materials, manufacturing and use.
While working within design studios in Japan, she contributed to research and product development projects for international technology and consumer brands. Selected work from this period remains confidential and is not shown.
Her independent and collaborative practice also includes exhibition and spatial design for MUJI and FUJIFILM, as well as interdisciplinary cultural projects shown in Tokyo.
In 2024 Olga relocated to the United Kingdom and now lives and works from Royal Leamington Spa.
