Excessories

 A collaborative design project with @mabiodesign commissioned by @lvmh for the @iucn_congress ‘One Nature, One Future’, 3-11th of September 2021 in Marseille, France. In a strategic collaboration with the new @mabiodesign course @csm_news, Maison/0 have been working during the pandemic with the first cohort of students on a project titled: Design For Nature.

Maison/0 asked: how can biodesign propose new concepts at the service of nature for the luxury sector? The work is currently on display at the IUCN congress opening today (International Union for the Conservation of Nature). In the coming days, we will be featuring some of these innovative ideas, where biology and design converge to disrupt our understanding of how we can develop new regenerative design concepts for luxury.

In response to this proposal, Cassie focused on water streams that have become heavily polluted from the textile industry which has threatened biodiversity. This body of research began by looking at wet textile processes and the potential harm they could cause to our water streams.
