O não desperdício , couro trabalhado, os excessos desse lixo já estão em queda. Isso leva para um futuro promissor do biomaterial. A futura fronteira do design de produto, dos interiores e da arquitetura. Esse é objetivo de pesquisa dos principais designers da atualidade. Palha e milho mexicano transformados em mobiliário.
“Cooking new materials” is an independently developed technique which aims to process bio-waste into a soft but yet robust leather-like material. The seemingly useless food wastes will reborn with a second life. Banana and orange peel or soy-milk are combined with a natural binding agent as the substrate. The resulting composite is fully biodegradable and can be easily reused after the re-cooking process. It is a 100% bio-degradable, zero waste natural product. Moreover, the bio-material ...
Materials that support the transition towards a more sustainable artistic practice
Studio Molinder
The immense knowledge of all aspects of glycan–lectin interactions both in vitro and in vivo may be efficiently used in bioimaging, targeted drug delivery, diagnostic and analytic biological methods. Practically applicable examples comprise photoluminescence and optical biosensors, ingenious three-dimensional carbohydrate microarrays for high-throughput screening, matrices for magnetic resonance imaging, targeted hyperthermal treatment of cancer tissues, selective inhibitors of bacterial toxins
In the campy 1966 science fiction movie "Fantastic Voyage," scientists miniaturize a submarine with themselves inside and travel through the body of a colleague to break up a potentially fatal blood clot. Right. Micro-humans aside, imagine the inflammation that metal sub would cause.
Japanese design studio Sozai Center has created Adam Sheet, a washable and scratch-resistant biomaterial made of leftover apple pomace and bioplastic.

Parisian exhibition En Vie (Alive) demonstrates the weird and wonderful bioproducts -- from cellulose shoes to furniture made of funghi -- that could be in this design-led show
A team of bioengineers at Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH), led by Ali Khademhosseini, PhD, and Nasim Annabi, PhD, of the Biomedical Engineering Division, has developed a new protein-based gel that, when exposed to light, mimics many of the properties of elastic tissue, such as skin and blood vessels. In a paper published in Advanced Functional Materials, the research team reports on the new material's key properties, many of which can be finely tuned, and on the results of using the material in preclinical models of wound healing.
It is always a pleasant surprise to find old Irenebrination friends in new contexts. The Dutch platform Transnatural Arts, Research & {future} Design (mentioned in a previous post) has indeed landed in Milan for the local Design Week (until 19th...
