‘Beyond Foam’ sets out to address the challenges posed by conventional polyurethane foam, a material widely used in furniture design. Developed during his time at Central Saint Martins, materials engineer Yash Shah presents a 3D-printed lattice alternative that rethinks traditional foam through innovations such as variable shore hardnesses and circular design principles. The installation showcases this new material through playful, interactive elements and original works by eight emerging product designers. Together, they encourage visitors to rethink the materials we interact with daily, offering a fresh perspective on designing for comfort.
