Conference
Material-Minded Design: the Intersection of Trend, Sustainability and the Materials We Use
April 20 2023, 11.00am
Materially and Material ConneXion bring together their long shared history in a lectio dedicated to the interconnections between materials, trends and design. During the lecture, we question how materials can provide concrete answers from trends and design directions, while respecting all-around sustainability criteria. Materials manage to translate trends and design directions into the final product, both from an aesthetic and language point of view and in performance and sustainability characteristics. Anna Pellizzari, Head Researcher, Materially and Jennifer Gumpert, VP of Business Operations, Material ConneXion, share their expertise in the area of material solutions.
