Michelle Roldan Boyd
I specialise in interpretive design, exhibition design and place communication for public environments. From parks, towns and cities to cultural destinations and visitor experiences, I help people understand the stories, history and character of a place through visual communication, interpretation and environmental graphics that feel intuitive, engaging and memorable.
My work brings together storytelling, human behaviour and visual communication to shape experiences that inform, inspire and create a genuine connection between people and place. I think across disciplines, drawing on culture, perception and design to develop communication systems that are both functional and emotionally engaging.
Outside work, if I’m not disappearing down a curiosity rabbit hole, you’ll probably find me sweating through a “How to Shuffle Dance for Beginners” tutorial on YouTube, or building elaborate cardboard mansions with my three daughters, who are arguably my most complex project to date.
