Lisa Aoyama

Hi! I’m Lisa, a designer that loves to question things, and get people to question things too. Questions are powerful because they can trigger curiosity, enquiry, and empathy.

Before Imperial-RCA, I studied design at Tokyo University of the Arts, where I was trained as a maker and an artist. So I gravitate more towards questioning the unquestioned, and exploring what could be rather than what will be.

I use expression to shift the way people think. I like to think of innovation not through behavioural but perceptual change.
