After a digital break for the summer, I'm super thrilled to share what's been happening in the background.
Faba-Forma, my Biodesign masters project, has been selected as 1 of the 8 GLOBAL finalists presenting in Hong Kong for the Techstyle For Social Good Innovation Challenge by @themillsfabrica

I am super excited to be showcasing my latest work - Faba Forma, in the interiors section at the Future Fabrics Expo 2024 with @thesustainableangle
It's a circular design system using bean waste to create 3D printed interior modules. Fully biodegradable, they provide a second income for farmers and promote the cultivation of beans.

In between my bean work, I couldn’t resist and play with a different organism.
This is my slime mould baby I tested on bioplastic for a biodesign installation piece I did earlier this month for @greengradsuk at @granddesigns_uk
For those of you who don't know (because I'm terrible at social media), I have been working with beans and their waste for the last 10 months.

Here are some sweet bean goodies in development.

We’re pleased to share some photos from our spring campaign interlude at @lcclondon ! We shared with students and staff cashew cheeses and engaged in meaningful conversations about food as both a personal choice and a powerful tool for future change.
We also celebrated the milestones achieved by past interludes and reshared our campaign's message: we're not here to change individual diets but to catalyse institutional and systemic change to address climate warming and reshape UAL’s food supply contracts.
We’re advocating for UAL to be a pioneer in serving innovative and regenerative foods that are plant, mushroom, and algae-based—nutritionally rich, culturally diverse, affordable, and tasty.
Thank you everyone who joined the evening, and @artssulondon who made it happen. This would not have happened without @nikdimova - thank you for organising and co-leading with care, and @nicoleafonsoalvescalistri for summarising the campaign's story.
Welcome to the students joining the campaign!
Let’s inspire change together: Free land, free minds, food regenesis!

Working on some 3D printing with pea and millet waste! Some successes, some failures. 😍

I've been having fun making some food caviar! Need to work on my flavours though!
