PLANERGY is bio-integrated material innovation, which aims at harnessing biological energy, senor, and actuator from the natural world. Often packaged under the term ‘sustainability', we are asked to rethink what we buy, how we travel to collectively reduce the environmental impact. But think again, what is the ‘greenest’ way of living? Shouldn’t we have sustainability fundamentally built-in when designing and making things for our daily lives? This project rethinks the relationship between humans and nature, as well as the relationship between technology and the nature system.
