Psychedelics Design, a platform exploring the intersection of psychedelics and design, is thrilled to announce the launch of its first-ever Psychedelics Design Awards.
Psychedelics Design founder Alexandra Plesner was recently featured in Authority Magazine's ongoing series on artists and creative leaders — a 9-minute read covering her upbringing in the Austrian Alps, the winding path that brought her to design and psychedelics, and the five hard-won lessons that now shape how she works and lives.
The interview touches on her fifth-generation family ice cream business, her scholarship to Central Saint Martins, and the moment Jarvis Cocker shook her hand at graduation — years after his lyrics first planted the seed of that dream.
A warm thank you to COOL HUNTING for featuring the 2026 Awards in their Design section this week.
At TRYP Expo 2026 at Funkhaus Berlin, Alexandra Plesner joined Jessika Lagarde and Tian Daphne of Women on Psychedelics for a talk that asked a bigger question: what becomes possible when we stop designing from ego and start designing from eco?
