Champ Co

Lauren Steller is many things. A designer. A doer. A “play” enthusiast, not theatre, but the fun type of play! For Lauren, play is a way to break down barriers and spark confidence and meaningful connection.

As a practising architect, Lauren observed the ways people inhabit spaces differently. The building is always the same but the way the individual connects, navigates and intercepts it is forever changing. We play by our own set of rules and this very behaviour inspired Lauren to develop her interest in play theory beyond architecture, launching her sustainable product range made from recycled airplane tyres, Champ Co, in 2015.
