meredith is an architect, artist, designer and creative director focusing on experiential conceptualization in both the physical and digital space. she is the founder of form as function, a full-service architecture and interior design firm; fool’s gold, an up-and-coming jewelry and clothing brand; and oui’d cafe, a guide to baking while baked.

While her road to entrepreneurship wasn’t traditional, it seems that her path was one she was destined for. An undergraduate degree in Studio Art paired with a graduate degree in Architecture honed her eye while teaching her about spatial relationships, connectivity of people to the built environment, social entrepreneurship and sustainability. The foundation was laid for a desire to pursue design, art and fashion in a holistic manner, centered on provoking emotions through experience of brand, space, art and ideas.

Meredith oversees her brand and projects out of her downtown headquarters. The space is part showroom and part studio. The showroom is filled with her work and collaborations with designers from all over the world. The studio focuses on visual thinking and design in the fields of architecture, interior design, art, travel, fashion and culture. The spectrum is wide: collaborations, design projects, products, films, identities, brand building, creative direction and much more.
