I did my internship at Material Sense LAB in Eindhoven. I focussed on the combination of materials and sustainability, since that was a still undiscovered part of my vision. I especially achieved my goals to broaden my database of materials, put interaction into practice, and gain understanding of all the aspects of circularity. Besides, I was able to specify my vision a bit more and I attained new perspectives mostly through visiting museums, exhibitions and exchanges.
The project highlights are the following: I made a second extended version of the Circular Materialization model; In addition I elaborated on their icons and labels of circularity; Moreover, I continued on a project that I made into a series of interactive blocks as a workshop tool for clients, called Material Awareness Experience (MAX); Some examples of smaller contributions are conducting the leather waste analysis for the Lasting Leather project, and helping during the DDW at the NS circularity workshop.
