FABRICADEMY

THE TEXTILE ACADEMY

I've done the post-graduate programme at IAAC Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia - Fab Lab Barcelona in 2022. During the course I further learnt new technologies applied in the textile industry, wearable design and biology-based materials

Highlights from the projects

Circular fashion

Circular fashion is a sustainable and ethical approach to fashion that promotes reuse, recycling, and reducing waste. By extending the life cycle of clothing and reducing the environmental impact of textile production, circular fashion can help reduce carbon emissions and promote a more sustainable future for the fashion industry.

Natural dyes and pigments

Natural dyes DIY is a sustainable and eco-friendly way to color fabrics and textiles, using natural sources such as plants, flowers, and even food waste. By avoiding harmful chemicals and reducing environmental impact, natural dyes DIY can help promote a more ethical and conscious approach to fashion and textile productio

Mycelium growing and molding

DIY mycelium material is an eco-friendly alternative to traditional materials, made from fungi and organic waste. By utilizing mycelium, which is biodegradable and easy to grow, this material has the potential to reduce waste and promote sustainable practices in industries such as packaging, furniture, and even fashion.

Bioplastics

Bioplastic is a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic, made from natural sources such as starches, cellulose, or algae. By reducing reliance on fossil fuels and promoting biodegradability, bioplastics have the potential to significantly reduce the environmental impact of plastic production and waste.

Composites and molding
