Bio-Materialization: A New Scientific Design Approach

The School of Constructed Environments at Parsons presents a lecture on the concept and technologies involved in the Scientific Design Approach (SDA) with Dr. Markus Holzbach, a trained Ceramic Engineer, Architect, and Material Specialist and Werner W. Lorke, Physicist and Material Scientist. Their talk focuses on cutting edge ceramic technologies and addresses biological processes to create non-organic, non-metal materials. Their approach at HfG University of Art & Design, in Frankfurt, Germany uses organic structures and substances to generate ceramic materials, products and one-of-a-kind design objects. By means of high-temperature transformation, 3d-printing, carbon-fiber fabric forming and PVD-technology, they have for instance turned wood into ceramics, ceramics into jewelry, and jewelry into functional objects of design.
