Sustainable Bio-material Project

Breakdown of what Biological Organic Material is in order to understand the next steps needed to be taken in the project.
Research boards showing existing bio-materials and products made from bio-materials.
Experiments with different materials and methods.
After the first batch of experiments some considerations were made for the next batch of experiments.
Different experiments with the cement material developed. Experiments include strength, color, ability to take shape of a mould and sealing material.
Different experiments with the rubber material developed. Experiments include strength, color, ability to take shape of a mould and compression.
Precedent board of the impact that take-away containers have on the environment and a precedent board showing existing design solutions which is also inspiration.
The problem faced for the design and a possible solution.
Inspiration boards for the shape and design of the take-away container.
Development sketches for the design of take-away containers.
The idea developed into designing a take-away container for fries.
First prototype attempt. Mould is made of Plaster of Paris. The middle part is used for compression of the sand mixture as well as to allow the design to be open.
First prototype outcome. Before (left) and after (right) sanding.
Second prototype next to first prototype. Red food coloring was used for the dying of the sand mixture.
Renders of completed assembly of the product. On the left is the exploded view and on the right it shows a cut view to be able to see how plant seeds would be placed at the bottom.
Renders showing the bottom part of the product. This part can be easily removed from the product in order to access the plant seeds.
Context render showing how the product will be used with fries inside.
First video submitted for this project.
