Betty Wood is a writer and editor based in London. She is Port Magazine’s Online Editor and a Contributing Editor to Avaunt Magazine. You can follow her @iambettywood.

Betty Wood will be presenting “Port x Molteni: Gio Ponti — Cover Story” at our first Creative Process talk.
On behalf of Port, Betty Wood curated an exhibition of Gio Ponti’s iconic D.270.2 armchairs in an exclusive range of textiles by four British designers, to celebrate London Design Festival. Drawing on her contacts as an editor and writer, Betty selected designers who demonstrated a shared commitment to craftmanship, eschewing straight-up textile designers in favour of multi-disciplinarian practitioners who echo the values of Ponti and the Italian furniture manufacturers.
