Design critic, freelance journalist and creative strategy consultant, Anne-France Berthelon is an adept of crossovers, versatility, travels, ideas, encounters and conversations. She has created knitting patterns for fashion magazines while studying Languages and found herself working as a freelance copywriter in the last golden years of advertising before becoming a trends & strategy analyst for fashion offices. Her passion for design and its global ecosystem has made her a regular contributor to design publications such as Ideat, Libération, The Good Life and DAMN. She has co-curated design exhibitions, given lectures and written essays for design monographies and catalogs and is regularly consulting for the Lebanese nonprofit platform House of Today. Being curious is her necessary luxury.
