- Project developed for the Sustainable Design Master's course: 'Material Narratives' -
WHAT? Mycelium-based circular packaging for essential rose oil.
HOW? Using the Material Driven Design methodology I used discarded rose petal as a substrate to create a mycelium-based composite packaging proposal. Additional material explorations where developed using other types of byproducts such as agricultural waste (straw, manure, seeds, barley)

¿QUÉ? Envase circular a base de micelio para aceite esencial de rosas.
¿CÓMO? Utilizando la metodología Material Driven Design, utilicé pétalos de rosa desechados como sustrato para crear una propuesta de empaque compuesto a base de micelio. Se desarrollaron exploraciones de materiales adicionales utilizando otro tipo de subproductos de residuos agrícolas (paja, estiércol, semillas, cebada)
