COMPOSITE BIOFORMS
NGV Design Week 2021
The project, Composite BioForms, is exhibited in the Printed Tectonics show for the NGV Melbourne Design Week. In this series of prototypes we are printing the outer skins of the walls in wood-bioplastics and recycled plastics with embedded
natural fibre composite tensile structural reinforcement (flax), within which a mycelium core is grown for compressive structure and insulation. We are developing an approach to fabricating biodegradable sandwich panels without petrochemicals.
