|Material Experiment and Innovative Design of Mycelium

Mycelium has great potential as a low-cost and fully degradable biomaterial. The inherent vitality of this material makes it even more attractive. This series of mycelium homeware designs attempt to bring this new biomaterial closer to people's everyday lives.

Mix the mushroom root fragments with the nutrient substrate and wait for a week for the thick mycelium to grow. The mixture is then pressed into a mould and cultivated to produce a specifically shaped, waterproof, fireproof and lightweight mycelium material.
