Bleached (dead) coralline algae (Corallina officinalis) and encrusting algae (Lithothamnia) on a pebble
Some water seemed to be full of oil, some so full of algae that you couldn't actually see any water underneath it.
Experimenting with different amounts of fertiliser, different water types, different algae strains, and different oxygen concentrations.
My sister and I decided to give a listen to the Rick Steves audio walking tour of Ostia Antica (map). It was a nice companion to our wonderful day of wandering around the town.
Beazley Designs of the Year 2018
(September 2018 until January 2019)
Designed by Studio Klarenbeek & Dros at Atelier Luma
Working at Atelier Luma in Arles, France, Eric Klarenbeek and Maartje Dros have been exploring the potential of algae as a replacement for non-biodegradable plastics. The Dutch duo have been working with a local network of farmers and experts to harvest the natural material, which is then cultivated, dried and processed into polymers. These polymers are 3D printed into a variety of objects, proposing a new model for sustainable production.
The exhibition displayed 87 of the most innovative designs across fashion, architecture, digital, transport, product and graphic design from the past 12 months, as nominated by design experts from around the world.
