Martha “Mattie” Rich is a Design Editor and Brand Strategist focused on contemporary craft and material culture.
Her work translates abstract cultural ideas into material and spatial expression, shaping visual systems, environments, and narratives that communicate identity through form and atmosphere.
She leads a hybrid practice moving between editorial authorship and applied design, collaborating with galleries, brands, and makers to define authorship, sharpen positioning, and establish cultural longevity.
She is the founder of Art Adjacent, an independent field guide and evolving publication examining contemporary design through cultural analysis and visual narrative.
