Euphemia studied Graphic Design at the Kingston School of Art, with a year abroad at the Kyoto Institute of Technology. She holds a D&AD New Blood and Creative Conscience Award. She is now a guest lecturer at the Kingston School of Art and was made a member of the Double Crown Club in 2023.

While in Kyoto, Euphemia developed relationships with local Nishijin silk weavers and started writing on the theme of traditional crafts and innovation in Japan. This led her to undertake an MA in History of Design at the RCA and V&A, where she was awarded the Clive Wainwright Memorial Prize, Anthony Gardner Fund (V&A) and the Research Expenses Award (RCA).

As a writer, Euphemia has contributed a number of articles on Japanese art and design to publications such as Textiles Asia, The Book Collector and V&A. She has a particular interest in Japanese artists’ exploration of sex, sexuality, fetishism and gender, and works with Baron Books to write and publish books on these themes.

The majority of her time is spent working as a specialist in Japanese books and manuscripts at Maggs Bros. Ltd., a rare book dealer’s based in Bloomsbury and Mayfair. Once a designer always a designer, she manages the firm’s design output and worked as the creative director on the the firm’s rebrand and website redesign in 2024.

Euphemia also keeps an active freelance practice, working out of a studio in Farringdon. She has worked as a Learning Producer at Royal Museums Greenwich and collaborated with Young V&A on their first Design Club for local secondary school children. In recent years she has developed her drawing practice, and enjoys taking artwork commissions.
