Background
The ‘Shaping New Material’ project explores the boundaries between design, art, and material innovation with a focus on sustainability.

New Perspectives, New Materials

By utilising Material Driven Design, designers delve into the potential of biomaterials and explore the significance of local resources. The project challenges the traditional view of material aesthetics and durability, offering new perspectives through systematic work on creating natural, biodegradable, and circular materials in sustainable production. The project represents a fusion of technical expertise and creative vision, setting a new standard for the future of the design industry.
