As a master student, my first interaction with biomaterials happened when I was looking for a solution to discarded natural resources in one of our local distribution companies. Through the exploration of waste as a new resource, an intuitive idea of designing a new material sprung. It was really interesting to witness, how tightly the world of matter interacts with our learned habits and material innovation, and furthermore, how it can greatly contribute to regenerative practices in the built environment. Perceiving a thing beyond the designation of a product and recognizing its elemental structure, is what opens up a creative passage of new perspectives and possibilities.
I love the idea of making materials and applying them to a certain situation accordingly, rather than picking them up from the known material library. I believe that aspect is fundamental to all forms of designing stuff and processes that create our everyday lives.
With that, materials present a crucial step in overcoming environmental challenges as well as a major contrast to the digital world, that has overflushed our lives. They are still the most real thing there is for us. By incorporating different fields of knowledge, disciplines, as well as sensations in their making, the work has also become a very personal journey for me.
