Wise Materials: From Ancestral Know-How to Modern Design
The theme will revolve around the sustainable value of traditional materials (such as glass and wood) and the age-old wisdom of resourcefulness (think water-saving practices, material reuse, and more) set against the backdrop of today’s fast-paced race for the development of new materials and technologies. This is not a case of one approach against the other, but rather an exploration of how both paths - tradition and innovation - ultimately strive toward the same goal: building a more sustainable and conscious future for design and architecture.
Speakers: William Knight (Co-Founder, Material Matters), Stephen Philips (Product Design Leader, Arup)
Moderator: Daniel Gava (Board Advisor to the Design Industry)
