About the Founder
Laura Collins is a neurodivergent artist and laser-craft maker who founded Neurospice Design Shop because, in her words, her brain wouldn't shut up and she needed something to do with all the noise. Living with ADHD and BPD, she designs from lived experience: every product passes one test. Would this have helped me, or someone like me?
She runs the studio from her craft room with a partner who spray-paints things for her and a cat who unplugs her equipment. The work is deliberately un-beige: "Not everyone needs another 'Live, Laugh, Love' sign. Some of us need a gremlin with a sticker that says this hurts and I'm still here." The mission isn't an empire. It's a refuge, one weird little thing at a time.
