Opens today the exhibition ‘RENEWABILITY: Renewability of materials and supplies for architecture and design‘, inside the event ARCHITECT@WORK exhibition event which is specifically created for architects and designers, 25-26 November 2014 at MiCo – Fiera Milano Congressi.
After the success of the first edition, ARCHITECT@WORK arrives in Italy this year with a key word: architecture and renewability.
Renewability is a fundamental aspect in both architecture and manufacturing industries, in order to meet all European requirements increasingly focused on protection and recovery of natural resources, and to increase the value of the resources derived from production, thus generating a vicious circle that tends towards infinity.
The symbol of infinity actually characterizes the layout of the exhibition, curated by architect Marco Capellini, and takes you on a journey which gives you a steady sense of continuity on how to use and reuse materials.
The exhibition organised by DDN magazines and MATREC, wants to give architects, designers and manufacturers many innovative material solutions, characterized by renewability, sustainability and rapidity of regeneration.
Hemp, cork, wood, bagasse, castor oil, bamboo, wool and flax are just a few of the natural and renewable materials on display used to make insulating panels, flooring, finishes, furniture and much more.
Each item is accompanied by a product data sheet which highlights the renewable and circular features of each material combined with the company contact details.
The exhibition also includes scientific contributions designed to provide visitors with an in-depth analysis on the renewability and circularity of materials.
