'Embossed PVC' and 'Flock Finish on Ceramic' exhibited at MoOD '17

Material exploration played a big part of my final year studies, which has continued through to my way of working after graduating. 

​

Chosen by Colour Hive in collaboration with Material Lab to be exhibited at the MoOD Innovation Platform in Brussels from 6-8 September, were the 'Embossed PVC' and 'Flock Finish on Ceramic'. 

​

The look of the 'Embossed PVC' plastic pressed into a linear grid can appear cold and stiff, but when touched is flexible and rubbery.

​

Electromagnetically flocked ceramic tiles produce a juxtaposition of soft and hard, and coldness and warmth. The green flock gives the impression of a mossy surface.
