The Materials Farm  Talk#1  Vegetable Derived
Channel: FAD Barcelona
Date: 25/11/2020

After having explored sustainable food and nutrition and tourism and bodily marks in the two first editions of The Materials Farm, in this edition Materfad proposes to focus on analyzing and understanding, through design and the crafts, the opportunities thrown up by territorial resources (vegetal and vegetative) as a strategy for a new sustainable global economy, by organizing two talks on two consecutive days during Barcelona Design Week.

As part of the “Neomateria” exhibition organized by MATERFAD and the CCAM, which is travelling around different Korean cities, MATERFAD has built a series of relationships with cutting-edge Korean and Catalan designers and artisans who have brought to light research projects in materials that can undoubtedly serve as inspiration for many other professionals worldwide. Seeking to gain a broader outlook from a territorial perspective, we have invited Mexican designers and artisans who are also researching plant materials to share their projects.
