Oldtidens teknikker løser nutidens udfordringer
Johanne Høgh tror på, at nøglen til mange af de designudfordringer, vi står med i dag, skal findes i fortidens teknikker og filosofierne bag dem. Derfor dykker hun ned i den 5000 år gamle væve-fletteteknik Sprang og bruger håndværket til at lege med lys og skygge, til inspiration for nutidens arkitektur. Hun bruger naturmaterialerne hør, hamp og nælde i sit projekt, som er skabt i samarbejde med tekstildesigner og certificeret ’Master of linen’ Karin Carlander.

Ancient techniques solve present-day challenges
Johanne Høgh believes that the answer to many of the design challenges we are currently grappling with can be found in ancient techniques and their underlying philosophies. Reviving sprang, a 5000-year-old weaving/braiding method, she uses the craft technique to play with light and shadow as inspiration for contemporary architecture. She employs the natural materials of linen, hemp and nettle in her project, which was created in collaboration with the textile designer and certified ‘Master of linen’ Karin Carlander.
