Plastic is a miraculous material that has countless practical uses, and yet it’s the poster child for the wasteful take-make-dispose linear economy. We all know about the end of life problems plastics can bring, but in this show we’ll investigate the solutions that could tackle plastics issues at their source. How can we design and use materials that fit the planet, fit the economy and fit our lifestyles?
Our studio experts will combine cutting-edge research from the University of Edinburgh with the latest thinking around material innovation from Google in order to paint a picture of our materials future. This is a show not to be missed.
