DIY Material Kits Program
MA Eco-Social Design Semester
2024/25 WS "Moltitudine" is a series of experiments done with pre-consumer waste, from the earplugs industry. The project aims to show waste material's potential, by realizing a surface and applying its characteristics to a range of solutions.
The quality control process checks the profile of each earplug, discarding them if they don't comply with the industrial standard.

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.
