    Bio Design: Growing the Future Design Futures Design Melanie Glöckler Nature fuses with science in biofacturing, a cutting-edge approach to design Neri Oxman and manufacture that sees products and systems not made, but grown Overview – Biofacturing – biological manufacturing – is a system of production that sees humans working with nature to grow materials and objects – It can be split into two distinct, top-level approaches: makers and artists who work with nature very directly; and scientists, engineers and designers working in the growing area of synthetic biology – From lab-grown luxuries such as leather and diamonds to more earthy processes and applications, biofacturing is set to make an impact across multiple industries and at varied market levels – Key materials for biofacturing design include algae, bacteria and mycelium, all of which are fast-growing organisms that are (relatively) simple to work with – As consumers become more sustainably minded, biofacturing methods will also begin to enter the home, particularly for food, drink and nutrition Jen Keane From Made to Grown "Over 3.8 billion years, biology has evolved In general, natural materials are more likely to rapid-prototype, recycle and replenish to be biodegradable or renewable, better than any system ever engineered by answering growing consumer concerns humans," says Natsai Audrey Chieza, around sustainability.

  • Vegan Design – Or the Art of Reduction at the Salone Del Mobile, Israeli Designer Erez Nevi Pana Demonstrates That Designing with Integrity Is Possible
    Vegan Design – Or the Art of Reduction At the Salone del Mobile, Israeli designer Erez Nevi Pana demonstrates that designing with integrity is possible. How many animals must suffer for us to make one chair? To design objects without diluting your ethics is feasible, and the results can be amazing. The atypical work of an Israeli designer proves it, smack in the middle of the Salone del Mobile feeding frenzy. Rosso, Annalisa. “Vegan Design – Or the Art of Reduction,” Domus, April 10, 2018. It’s called “Vegan Design – Or the Art of Reduction” the exhibition by Erez Nevi Pana that you shouldn’t miss during the 2018 Milan Design Week. It doesn’t happen often that we stumble upon a similar concentrate of ethics, rigour and research with a special focus on salt. This solo show, curated by Maria Cristina Didero and produced by the 5VIE design district, proves how it is possible to design objects using neither animal-derived materials nor processes that contemplate them. “I met Erez in Tel Aviv when I was working on the Nendo exhibition at the Design Museum Holon in 2016,” says Didero. “We were both involved in an adventure in the ultra-orthodox quarter of the city. Afterward, he told me he was a designer, which is how I found out about his all-encompassing approach to life, to the relations between things, his work, his commitment to his discipline. His consideration of the world and design objects is given by his nature: unique.” Together, Nevi Pana and Didero decided to present this show during the Furniture Fair, precisely in contrast with the commercial character of the latter.

To date, the Muslims also followed suit with the trend of veganism in the quest of practicing a healthy lifestyle. Nonetheless, concerns arise on the degree of acknowledgement by the Islamic teachings on such diets which advocate for omitting animal products in one’s daily meal. Therefore, this paperwork seeks to identify the elements of veganism from the viewpoints of various perspectives of Muslims, based on their sentiments and personal preferences in order to examine the relevance of veganism as a lifestyle to be exercised by Muslims.
