The aim of this project is to produce a material workflow methodology in order for textiles to be robust enough to be used as a garment, in product design and ultimately as an architectural surface. In this proposal we envision bio-degradable materials that are multi-use, multi-functional
and multi-scalar. We have invented a new textile grown with mycellium and rice waste. The outer skin is
resistant and water-proof, the middle skin contains several zipped containers where very thin edible materials are preserved. |
