About the Project
This project explores alginate a biodegradable material derived from seaweed, dyed with it's natural pigments. Through experimenting with texture, colour, and form, we crafted a fashion piece echoing seaweed’s movement. After use, it dissolves in water, closing the loop. Our documented process encourages sustainable design and material innovation beyond conventional plastics.
