Future Proof – 3/3 This is Urine: Another #wastebased material that will be on display during the @materialdriven exhibition at @architect_at_work in London is this material by @sinae_akery_kim. Her project #thisisurine looks to better the appreciation of #urine as a valuable resource for designers. With over seven billion people living in the world today, that soon adds up to over 10.5 billion litres of urine produced everyday. She presents her work as a collection of ceramic tiles composed and glazed with human urine. The designer’s hope is to question the ethics of disposing such a vast raw resource simply because of our own personal perceptions around #humanwaste. Want to come and see what transformed urine looks like? We will be at @trumanbrewery  on January 30th and 31st, for #Architectatwork2019#materialdriven.
Future Proof- 2/3 Dust Matters The @materialdriven exhibition at @architect_at_work in London #FutureProof will be showcasing material makers that are creating a #materialrevolution by using valuable waste resource in innovative ways. Dust Matters by @lucielibotte examines an overlooked discarded matter  that we can find everywhere- domestic dust. Combined with ceramic, the artist accidentally realised that some of the dust components chemically react like a glaze. Lucie challenges the way we perceive dust as something dirty, unhygienic and unhealthy and turns it into beautiful, decorative vessels and surfaces. Discover #valuablewaste at @trumanbrewery on January 30th and 31st, for #Architectatwork2019 #materialdriven.
Future Proof - 1/3 - Sanne Visser Come see the @materialdriven exhibition at @architect_at_work in London. A curated display of materials that are #futureproof and are making a better tomorrow for us . We will be looking at waste with new eyes- for example the work of @studiosannevisser who is harnessing the potential of #humanhair waste. Her work The New Age of Trichology collects hair discarded by London hairdressers and transforms it into super strong rope and yarn that is used to make a range of utilitarian objects and tools. Did you know that on average, one human hair can hold up to 100 grams of weight? Discover this and more at @trumanbrewery on January 30th and 31st, for #Architectatwork2019 #materialdriven
Future Proof 3/3–Aectual.This month,@materialdriven curates the materials section of the London show @architect_at_work in London, presenting a collection that is cutting edge and #FutureProof. Among the materials on show is @aectual– an innovative 3D printed flooring system with terrazzo infill. Using materials that are bio-based or recycled, and 3D printed patterns that are tailor-made to the size and type of floor space and client preference, a sustainable, nearly zero waste solution emerges. The customizing of patterns also offers the opportunity to build in narrative and ties to the project. To see #Aectual, among other exciting materials, visit us at @trumanbrewery on January 30th and 31st, for #Architectatwork2019 #materialdriven. Images courtesy @dezeen and @aectual
