My name is Naoimh Ingram and I’m an Irish born designer based in Amsterdam. I’ve been experimenting with growing microbial leather for over 2 years now and what started out as a home hobby is now moving to the next phase.

Having recently moved from the kitchen cupboards to a new studio, I’m now working on growing a beautiful portfolio of products from bags to jewellery, lampshades to phone covers, which I hope to soon be able to put on the market.

Combining my new unique fabric with scavenged, found and natural objects I’m looking forward to sharing my creations.
