Brochure: BioBio, 2010.

 

A research project on new natural composite materials for product design. The project is carried out in collaboration with Danish industrial designer Martin Larsen and with senior engineer Tom Løgstrup Andersen from Risø, the Danish National Laboratory for Sustainable Energy. With the project, we are aiming at developing new materials that combine the brilliant mechanical properties of natural fibers with their tactile aesthetic qualities by casting a woven textile in a biopolymer. The outcome of the first year of experimentation was exhibited at the Craft and Design Biennale 09 at the Danish Design Museum Trapholt over the summer of 2009. Martin and Karina were awarded a prize by The Danish State Art Foundation for their work as well as they have received funding from The Danish Nationalbank Jubilee Foundation of 1968.
