2024/25 WS It is possible to completely disappear without hearing a sound. But how can it be real? Leaves have the power to isolate noises. With a concave shape and a wavy, yet irregular surface nothing can interfere with your personal sphere. The sounds of the trees are brought directly to you, to listen to them in company or on your own.
During autumn, the acer platanoides trees undress and turn with warm colors all over Bozen. Fortunately, leaving a huge amount of intriguing shapes, shades and colors under the tree, immediately available to be used.

DIY Material Kits
Orange peels, peanut shells, avocado seeds, the daily consumption of our favorite foods often goes together with leftovers. What if we give food waste a second life? Taking scraps as the starting point to create something new? With these Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Material Kits we document and share our hands-on research with recipes to inspire and enable (future) applications.
