Rootfull is pioneering a new paradigm in bio-fabrication by guiding plant root as it grows to create novel materials.
Rootfull cultivates textile by guiding plant root, as it grows, with templates that are intricately carved from beeswax. In just 12 days, the wheatgrass seeds sprout and the root grows down onto delicately carved, natural beeswax templates to create different shapes and textures.
Any excess shoot or seed is repurposed as animal fodder, leaving no waste behind. Contemporary craft objects that promote regenerative regenerative design, Rootfull extends the limits of 3D printing and ushers in a new era of programmable, sustainable fabrication.
