Designer: Ecovative
Category: Product
A compostable material to grow, then build with
Ecovative create high-performing biocomposites from humble raw materials. They use fungal mycelium, the root-like structure of a mushroom, to glue together agricultural wastes into high-performing and sustainable products. The resulting material is also completely compostable, so at the end of its useful life, it can be returned to the soil as a nutrient. Grow It Yourself empowers artists, makers, and innovators to use this potentially revolutionary material for their own projects.
