Just finished growing this new collection …..
Soon to be on its way to a Japanese restaurant in California.

What I loved most about the commission was the challenge of growing root materials for a specific design. It took some advance planning, timetabling of planting cycles and then the seeds (and co-collaborators 🌱) did wonderful work!
Feels good to see the material come alive with light✨

I’m generally not a fan of being in front of the camera but this was a blast! Cheers for capturing the Rootfull studio through your cinematic lens. I’m very glad to feature in your epic UK makers portrait project 💥

Grass root vessels, with stone inclusion.
Grateful to have had time in the studio recently, combining grown materials with found objects and exploring the wonders of natural indigo dye! 💙

Somewhere at the intersection of computational design and biological growth - x 🌱

Behind the scenes we’ve been deliberately blending high-tech computational design with slow-tech biological growth. The result? “programmable” root growth that challenges the boundaries of traditional 3D printing.

Innovation that sits comfortably 🌱  FullSPRING is a 2-year research project between and to see just how far plant roots can grow. By guiding root systems through wool fibres, we create a durable, breathable, and entirely compostable furniture filling.
The innovation is at proof-of-concept stage so if you bring the kind of expertise that pushes ideas into reality, we’d love to talk. Read the full story of our 2-year journey at the link in our bio.
