Laura Kinsella work is created entirely by hand using traditional millinery techniques which she have taken and absorbed into the creation of own unique techniques. The work generally tends to concentrate and focus on each piece as a collective textile development and a stand alone structure whilst then also allowing it to be a considered piece of design which is then wearable art.

Laura Kinsella believe that own work speaks of something that is abstract and innovative, reminiscent of work from old masters, to products of our time, a blended display of traditional hand craft, design and even art. Laura Kinsella trademark ethics and brand is to always be guided from the great traditions and crafts of the past but to constantly look forward and look at each new prospect as a challenge to create some- thing forward thinking and evolving for the world in which we want to live in. In Laura Kinsella opinion, accessories are of all the crafts one of the most fundamental categories of objects that can sit so perfectly in the middle of the Venn diagram of the craft, design and the technological world.
