Regen

Regen introduces a graphic system where living root structures function as both visual language and material substrate. Instead of printing on inert surfaces, communication emerges through controlled biological growth. Each artifact operates simultaneously as a visual message, living organism, and biodegradable outcome. By aligning legibility with ecological cycles, the project reframes graphic production as a regenerative process, proposing an alternative model where communication evolves, transforms, and reintegrates into natural systems rather than generating waste.

Ringo Gamaguchi

This product takes the shape of an apple because it is crafted from Ringo Tex, a synthetic leather derived from apple waste. Its dimensions are based on the size of a real small apple, emphasizing its origin. Its main feature is its slimness, not usually seen among clasp purses. This was achieved by adopting a sewing approach different from conventional purses, allowing the structure to remain thin. The intention was to create a product that can easily fit into bags or pockets, allowing coins and other small items to be carried smartly without adding much bulk.

Boomerang Athens

Conceived as an urban oasis on Lycabettus Hill, Boomerang Athens presents a calm architectural presence shaped by controlled openings and a vertical shading system that regulates privacy, light, and heat. A refined palette of metal, wood, and marble adds warmth to its minimalist character. The rooftop forms an elevated living landscape with a pool, and the illuminated Boomerang Pergola defines the silhouette at night. As the first leed platinum certified residence in Greece, the house combines sustainability and high environmental performance with everyday comfort through knx programming.

TCLGreen

TCLGreen is a modular Grass inspired Art installation and can be adapted to any location. Recycled from over 3000 discarded computer circuit boards and illuminated at night entirely by the power of the sun. With a special bioluminescent coating that glows in the dark by absorbing both natural and artificial photons, it illuminates even without electricity. An included Artificial Intelligence system is embedded into the totems where the installation can "talk" to anyone organically. A special Metaverse Immersion is included once VR/AR goggles are worn.

Sustenta

Sustenta is a 2 piece toilet that aims to redefine eco-consciousness. It sets a new standard in water conservation by using 2.5 liters (0.66 gallons) per flush, which is lower than the actual ecologic toilets that range from 3.5L to 4.8L. This represents a reduction of up to 60 percent in water usage, marking a viable option for day a day sustainability. Recognizing the importance of water conservation and toilet functionality, Sustenta delivers a new toilet experience that also contributes to the preservation of one of the planet's key resource.
