9 Designers Revolutionizing Bio-based Materials Dutch Design Week (DDW) showcased groundbreaking projects at the intersection of design, sustainability, and biotechnology. From mycelium coffins to innovative facade panels with moss, bio-based materials were pushed to new heights. Notable projects like "Nawa," which merges agriculture and construction, and "Psychedelic Textiles," exploring wool ecosystems, highlight a future built on renewable, circular design. These forward-thinking designs are challenging traditional production models and paving the way for a more sustainable and resilient world.

#SaturdayInDesign with a difference! It was a refreshingly different experience for me this year, attending Stylecraft for a panel discussion curated by Nicole Johnson on the next generation of materials....a conversation that desperately needs to be had about evolving our material and product supply chain towards a #circulareconomy. And so full of hope and excitement to hear what's actually happening. Highlights of the discussion... - Su-Fern Tan's overview of the GBCA's new fitout tool in late stage development...focusing on circularity, to build less and build well, and carbon reduction. - Andrea Rossetto introduced PaperShell - a new circular, carbon negative and fully biodegradable seating material being used to replace polypropylene in the classic Catifa chair. - Ben Rennie's analogy of approaching building to Coco Chanel's infamous fashion rule... "Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take at least one thing off" (love this, on so many levels!) - And finally, new materials superstar ⭐ Veena Sahajwalla, who after solving for one issue by inventing Green Ceramics manufactured from waste, has turned her attention to the re-invention of aluminium through it's extraction from the humble potato chip packet...so many possibilities! It's truly an exciting time for the future of materials & circularity in the built environment. To see concepts that have been merely talked of in abstract terms for years start to take a practical shape suggests that change is here. #futurematerials #circularity Indesign Media Asia Pacific, Design Declares Australia, Green Building Council of Australia, CBRE, UNSW Engineering, Arper, Reny Studio, Stylecraft

For the fifth time, Studio Peipei led a #workshop for the Master in Design through New Materials at Elisava School of Design and Engineering This time on the topic of "Natural Fibers". There are so many forgotten or barely known natural fibers, but at the same time, plastic is also everywhere in fabrics. With a recycling rate that is still close to zero. As designers, we can change this because, after all, we design products. The workshop is therefore intended to help students discover healthier alternatives. #naturalfibers #materialdesign
