Restless Mirabilia / The Workshop

During the GLI EXPERIMENTI weekend in nice Rovereto (Trento), we have been invited from one of our favourite museums MART Museo di arte moderna e contemporanea di Trento e Rovereto (long name) to have a workshop there. We created a brand new one, inspired by our project Restless Mirabilia. It is about the creative method and the final goal is to craft an ephemeral, portable, autobiographical wunderkammer (= cabinet of curiosities).

Out Of Place - Powerful Plants

Conceptual styling work for PLANTS OUT OF PLACE project, directed by Coloni & Studio Aikieu - London Design Festival 2015. 

They called us to action on the concept that a weed is a plant out of place, undesirable because out of human control.

Out Of Place - Making Of

We share with you some backstage pictures of our contribution for the project Plants Out of Place, directed by Studio Aikieu (UK) and Coloni (Sweden) and launched at the recent London Design Festival 2015.

The collective project seeks to engage with the wider communities to re-consider the value of wild plants and how we may utilise them to design for a better future.

LUSTR / Gelatology in Prague

We have been lucky enough to have been invited to join LUSTR - Illustration festival in Prague (CZ). There we had both GELATOLOGY 2D and the classic 3D workshops.
As always, you can find the final sculptures in the GELATOLOGY tumblr.

The Unconventional Panino

Slow Wood is a project born in 2010 from our love for food, fun and things that are well done. It is a manipulable sculpture that enables anyone to create unconventional and never-ending combinations of flavours and shapes, suitable for all ages.

Gelatology / The Workshop #1

GELATOLOGY   I multigusti del visivo / The many flavours of aesthetics

Through the metaphor and the model of an ice-cream cone we explore milky geometries and marbled combinations of matter. The workshop offers a taste of Studio Fludd's creative methodology, allowing participants to experience a process which begins by collecting and re-elaborating differing types of stimuli and concludes with a visually effective material product.
