Julika Schwarz

Julika Schwarz is a German interdisciplinary designer who graduated from the Münster School of Design at FH Münster in 2025. Her work sits between product design, material research and social impact, and it usually begins with a resource that is either wasted or taken for granted.

With Louisa Graupe she developed Water from Air, a mobile 3D-printed device that pulls drinking water out of atmospheric humidity using metal-organic frameworks, producing up to six litres a day in a closed, self-sufficient cycle and treating air itself as the raw material. The project was selected for German Design Graduates, took silver at Creative Conscience and has been widely published, from DesignWanted and Designboom to the German design press, as a household-scale answer to water scarcity.
