BioArchitecture: New Futures of Sustainable Living

• Public exhibition and lecture at the International Science Festival, Vetenskapsfestivalen 2022, in Gothenburg, Sweden. The presentation provides glimpses of an unknown future of living surrounded by architectural structures made from sustainable biomaterials. Audience is encouraged to reflect and create their own imaginings of such a future by experiencing physical samples representing fragments of architectural objects from such materials, 3D printed using digital machines and industrial robots. In the lecture, an unusual research collaboration between seemingly unrelated disciplines - architecture and chemistry - is discussed. The aim is to demonstrate how a crossover between artistic design, digital technology and natural sciences creates unprecedented opportunities for innovation. Such innovation relates to a sustainable future in which waste from the Swedish forestry industry is transformed into a novel material with great potentials for new applications in architecture and built environment.
