When textile design and architecture meet new technologies and materials.

Diverse
(Copenhagen). From the Light space: textile illumination symposium to the Imprimer la lumière, ImpressioVivo and Eco-Metabolistic Modelling for Architectural Design projects, this will be the occasion to discuss how biofabricated and living materials can contribute to more sustainable practices of architecture and design.
Aurélie Mosse is a designer, researcher, and professor, co-leading the Soft Matters research group in Ensadlab - the French pioneering art & design-led research lab of Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs. Her research practice sits at the intersection of textile design, architecture, and new materials & technologies, currently exploring how active and living materials can inform more resilient and poetic perspectives of inhabitation.
Her approach is practice-based, always placing making at the center of the research process. In 2015, she co-founded Soft Matters, playing an instrumental role in the emergence of French textile & fashion design research. In 2022, she obtained the first JCJC grant from the French National Agency for Research ever attributed to a school of art and design with the ImpressioVivo project dedicated to the 3D printing of biomaterials informed by biocalcifying and bioluminescent bacteria for a circular design context. She is also a co-beneficiary of the EU-funded MSCA doctoral network SOFTWEAR focused on soft actuators for wearables and exoskeletons and was appointed associated member of the Matters of Activity Cluster (MoA) at the Humboldt University in 2019. She is also the author of L'Accent fantôme et autres impressions séfarades, an essay reflecting on the stakes of memory and transmission through her design work.
Martin Tamke is Associate Professor at the Centre for Information Technology and Architecture (CITA) in Copenhagen. He is pursuing design-led research in the interface and implications of computational design and its materialization. He joined the newly founded research center CITA in 2006 and shaped its design-based research practice, with a strong interdisciplinary focus on projects, such as "DuraARK" or the international Marie Curie ITN network Innochain.
His latest research focuses on computational strategies and technologies for the transformation of the building industry towards sustainable and circular practices based on bio-materials. In 2019 Martin was appointed General reporter for the scientific track of the UIA2023 Copenhagen World Congress of Architects and in 2022 Guest professor at the University Stuttgart at the Cluster of Excellence: IntCDC Integrative Computational Design and Construction for Architecture. Currently, he is a Guest professor at the Polytechnical University of Milano and is involved in the Danish-funded research project Predicting Response, the EU project Exskallerate, the ERC project "Eco-Metabolistic Modelling for Architectural Design" and several industrial collaborations
