 \* *note: "new" or "other" naturals is not a thing (yet). But the word is sometimes used in material archives as container category for materials that don't fit the traditional material families of wood, hide, metal, glass, plastics, stone, etcetera. New or other naturals is a left-over tag to indicate composite or otherwise hybrid materials made from renewable natural resources such as food waste, plant fibres etcetera.*

 ##Outcomes
 
 A curated selection from best practices found in research labs, material archives and design studios from all over the world. The information itself was already widely known, this project is an effort to ask new questions, and think up new structures for organising and building on this knowledge in open, collaborative ways, not over-simplifying nor mystifying the information and skills needed. It is also an exercise in learning globally, but practicing *locally*, using resources locally abundant in your location (which for me, was the Netherlands).

 This project is indebted to the knowledge collected and created in and around the Fabricademy network, and builds upon the (physical) Material Archive at Textile Lab Waag that was realised by Cecilia Raspanti, Maria Viftrup and others in 2016-2017.
 
 ###Future development
 
-- realising the online database further with a designer and developer
-- develop, document and add methods for simple material testing
-- create well-researched ingredient pages for all the ingredients used (now only glycerine as an example). 
-- add section for open-source DIY tools for fabrication
-- further testing of the formats as tools for learning in higher education and fabricademy, gathering peer feedback from peers
