Working with Materials

We work with plastic and technical textile materials from industry, events and production.

We develop sheet material through design and prototyping to support products, structures and installations.

Our work develops new approaches to material use and long-term value, including the Plastic Revolution, an initiative focused on changing perceptions and behaviours around plastic.
