is a speculative short project which challenges the narrative of expectation in design, specifically fashion. The average person wears a piece of clothing seven times; with style evolving so quickly, do we need our clothing to outlast us? Using a crosslinked bio-composite, I created a versatile bio-branding with a rubber like texture which can be screen printed and cast. The composite has cooling properties which show promise for use in performance-wear. When dehydrated, it creates an embossing effect on fabric and it can also be coated for enhanced durability and hydrophobicity. Most importantly, the composite biodegrades in a matter of months.
