    Migration of Matter - How can design express the evolving symbiosis between humans and plants

    Germany
    Today, the Earth's biodiversity is being lost at an alarming rate. By embodying elements of lesser known plant species, our project can highlight this issue and increase knowledge of the natural world. Each 3D printed clay artefact tells a unique story. Aesthetically, we take inspiration from little known, weird and wonderful plants and fungi by 3D scanning them and giving new life through parametric design using local clays and pigments from the same regions as the objects we re-imagine.

    Green Shades

    Green Shades. The first green awning

    Lake by the hill Hrádok

    Slovakia
    Through the daily care of the lake as well as the creation of the Lake Gallery, a carefully maintained public recreation area has been created, which is a favorite place of the city's citizens not only from the nearby housing estates. Creation in its surroundings leads people to the natural need to take care of nature, order and motivates them to be part of the creation itself. The diversity of birds has increased, flowers and people can follow the craft during the carving itself.

    Grapoila Permaculture Project

    Hungary
    What has an office building in the capital got to do with permaculture? Or office workers with planting, composting, rainwater harvesting, or the roots of a goat's beard? Nothing and everything. Grapoila Permaculture is a unique initiative in Hungary to revitalize a neglected, desertified area around an office building in a permaculture approach. The area thus regenerates faster, provides food, serves as a resting area, and as an ever-changing educational base due to the seasonality.
