Meet the Team
Studio Snoop is led by a core creative team, but every project we take on is shaped by a wider circle of collaborators. For each client, we curate bespoke teams of global and local experts—architects, landscape architects, scientists, artists, sensory specialists, ancient healers, technologists, artisans, lighting designers, cultural thinkers and branding specialist's—ensuring the most visionary and relevant minds are guiding the work.
We believe in collective intelligence, emotional intelligence, and deep collaboration. That’s how we create spaces that are truly transformative.
Co-Head of Creative & Founder
ANANDA TALBOT
Designer. Maker.
Ananda leads Studio Snoop with an instinct for human emotion and an eye for radical beauty. A designer and maker at heart, she’s known for imagining and specialising in what the world needs before the world knows it needs it. Her work spans iconic hospitality spaces, emotional environments, and now the redefinition of wellness through architecture and systems thinking.
As a creative futurist, Ananda anticipates human behaviours and unmet emotional needs—translating them into spaces, objects, and systems that feel both visionary and deeply grounded. She thinks far outside the box but brings those ideas fully into reality with clarity, heart, and craft. Her approach to design is heart-centred, intuitive, and purpose-driven—always asking how spaces can help us heal, reconnect, and thrive.
