Objects

Every object is a co-creation with the material.
Form and function follows material. It derives from unwanted matter, urban finds, residue, and object fragments to broken objects.

It becomes a playful search for beauty, a practice to foster the exploration and study of materials whilst  inviting unconventional approaches and pushing the boundaries of design innovation.

An overview of different manufactured biomaterials created by Jannis Schäfer Studio, titled 'The Nature of Transformation: Lessons from a Potato.' The image showcases various forms made from 100% potato using techniques such as fermentation, 3D printing, hand forming, and molding. The pieces vary in shape and texture, demonstrating the versatility and transformation of potato-based biomaterials.
