future of fats

Supported by the Royal Commission Exhibition of 1851 ‘Fatconomy and the uncharted future of fats’ is a series of design driven investigations into waste fats and oils, focusing on the main (and only) trade that deals with our ever-increasing fat and oil waste output produced from all commercial and domestic kitchens: biofuel production. working alongside industry - this project hopes to open a new material culture and narrative surrounding the power of fat.

The fat map

Exploring future material possibilities with biofuel made from waste fat. The fat map links a new selection of trades together to actively contribute to more transparent waste management systems.

Social Dreaming

Together, with a curated group of experts we speculated and reacted to new biowaste biproducts i.e., wood flour and waste oil and the future material economies that can exist.
