Fi Scott
Founder, MakeWorks
Fi is the founder of Make Works, an independent design organisation that facilitates and celebrates local manufacturing, making and craftsmanship. In 2013, she embarked on the Make Works Tour, a 90-day road trip across Scotland finding, mapping and filming 120 factories, material suppliers and workshop facilities that could be used by artists and designers. The information collected was then used to launch a curated digital directory of industry. Make Works also run residency programmes, cultural projects and produces a bi-annual publication.
Fi trained as a product designer at Glasgow School of Art and has previously worked as a designer in Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Scotland for companies such as DMFD, Design Philadelphia Festival, Ben Dawson Furniture and MAKLab.
