Matrix Design presents Hand, Code, Matter: A New Flow for Spatial Design, exploring the changing relationship between human creativity, AI and emerging technologies, and what that might mean for the spaces we design. Only Natural showcases winning work from its annual Student Design Competition, revealing how a new generation of designers is working inventively with natural materials across fashion and interiors. FRONT and Biomason present Mimmik Tile™, an architectural tile grown with the help of bacteria rather than conventionally fired. Taking its cues from coral formation, the project proposes a very different way of thinking about how architectural surfaces can be made. The British Council presents Making Matters, a programme exploring how circular thinking can shape new approaches to architecture, design and fashion, with a particular focus on materials, skills and the exchange of knowledge. Berghaus, Material Matters' Thought Leadership Partner, brings its expertise in performance and technical materials, opening up conversations around durability, innovation and the role materials play in creating products that are designed to last. Together, the projects reveal some of the different ways designers, researchers and manufacturers are rethinking materials, from how they are grown and made to the role technology can play in shaping their future.
