Natalie Blom
Natalie is an architect, artist, and researcher based in Stockholm. Her work addresses contemporary socio-ecological challenges by examining concepts of co-existence and ”messy togetherness.” She is interested in design strategies that foster care and intimacy with local ecologies, extending these principles to strengthen human relationships.

She is a co-founder of Garden Loops, an international collective of architects and artists operating between Gothenburg and Stockholm. The collective’s practice investigates local ecologies and food systems through a more-than-human perspective. Garden Loops employs workshops as a platform for open, shared learning, aiming to establish collaborative networks and promote interdisciplinary dialogue.

Natalie holds a postmaster from the Royal Academy of Arts in Stockholm, where she participated in the program Of Public Interest (OPI) Lab 2023-2024.
