TABLE OF CONTENT
A home in your home for your VR headset
June 2022


The future of home entertainment is virtual reality, and our physical environments will have to adapt to new lifestyles. SKY users will consume immersive content like documentaries, dramas and crime shows in 360° daily. But where will the headset go when it’s not in use?

 

The 360° HUB is the home for the headset. It discretely displays the headset while charging it and blends into any living room as a sleek side table. The table is made of recycled satellite dishes: the old technology housing the new.

BEANCRETE
Transforming Fava Bean waste into a new circular material
January 2022

The UK produces over 780.000 tonnes of fava beans waste annually. While the beans are exported to Egypt, the shells stay behind in landfills releasing huge quantities of CO2 and methane.



I designed a fully biodegradable material to tackle this growing waste stream. Through an iterative process, I developed a recipe and found applications for my new material - BEANCRETE.

The material is open-source, so it can be made in any kitchen, but it has the potential to be scaled to drastically reduce Fava Bean waste in the UK and globally.
