By defining materials based on base composition rather than current use, it gives a better understanding of their potential and understanding.

“IF YOU SEE A NEW MATERIAL, IT’S LIKE A KEY THAT OPENS A DOOR.
BEHIND THE DOOR THERE’S A KIND OF NEW WORLD, FILLED
WITH NEW PEOPLE, NEW FIGURES, NEW IDEAS, NEW VISIONS.”
WOLFGANG JOOP fashion designer, Hamburg, Germany

“MY FAVORITE MATERIALS ARE ONES THAT CAN BE ALMOST
IMMATERIAL IN APPEARANCE – GLASS OR PLASTICS. PLASTICS
PROVIDE THE MOST VARIED PERFORMANCES, FINISHES, and
DIVERSE PROPERTIES. THEY INSPIRE ME TO CREATE FLUID,
SOFT, ORGANIC, ALMOST HUMAN FORM.”
KARIM RASHID  industrial designer, New York
