Project
Circular Design Challenge 2024
The summer school on Monomaterial is currently being redesigned into a symposium for the end of 2024 and you can find updates on this website soon!
Leaning on the original idea of a Summer School on Mono-Materials, focusing on the functional behavior of materials through innovative geometric design, we are now developing a symposium on the same topic.
This event will bring together leading experts from diverse fields to explore how mono-materials and architected materials can contribute to sustainable future applications.
Potential participants:
- Prof. Benoit Roman (University Paris-Saclay)
- Prof. Joanna Dauner (HTW, Dresden)
- Prof. Axel Spickenheuer (IPF, Dresden)
- Dr. Lorenzo Guiducci (DST, Dresden)
- Facundo Gutierrez (Motorskins, Berlin)
- Heidi Jalkh (University of Buenos Aires)
- Mette Bak-Andersen
- Matthew Gardiner (Ars Electronica, Linz)
- Lea Schmidt (Hochschule Luzern)
About the topic: Our everyday products often use a mix of materials, complicating recycling and sustainability efforts. This summer school aims to address these challenges by showcasing research on mono-materials—materials with reduced compositional complexity—offering new opportunities for future applications.
