Formafantasma – The Material Experiment / TALK (EN)

The Italian design studio Formafantasma sees itself as a mediator between craft, research and industrial design. For works such as »Botanica«, »Craftica« or the »Charcoal« project, launched for the Vitra Design Museum in 2012, designers Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin experiment with conventional materials – some of which are unusual in design – such as leather, stone or coal, and come up with innovative and surprising applications and production processes. In their presentation, Formafantasma will present their work and talk about the importance of materials as an inspiration and starting point. Free admission
