Being a passionate and honest designer, I am dedicated to embracing a forward-thinking and empathetic design practice. My diverse background and experiences have fuelled my passion for sustainable and responsible design, combining creativity with material innovation, and sincere commitment to both people and the environment. With the need to evoke meaningful change, I strive to address challenges of real individuals and gain a deeper understanding of implementing behavioural change to create a greener future.
RE-Materia DIY Kit empowers individuals to create biodegradable bioplastic packaging from household fruit and vegetable peel waste while encouraging a shift in mindset towards sustainability and circularity. The kit provides bottles with essential ingredients and a manual. The latter guides the user through the world of biomaterials, proposes two recipes for DIY bioplastics, and provides sewing patterns for stitching packaging from the self-made materials. With the help of RE-Materia DIY Kit, you can breathe new life into seemingly useless scraps, turning them into valuable resource. Create a more eco-friendly and innovative future, one repurposed product at a time!
