Abstract
"Over the last 50 years, digital fabrication has shaped the world of design and industrial production, reducing the gaps between digital technologies and the process of physical construction. In addition, issues related to climate change and carbon emissions have played a major role in the development of new sustainable materials. Although organic alternatives to plastic are in the process of being explored and developed, their application in interior design is still very limited. The reason for this can partly be attributed to the limited productive possibilities of these materials. In recent years, there has been a focus in the industry on combining such organic alternatives to plastic with digital manufacturing in the hope of achieving high-quality results for industrial applications. This gives rise to the question: is the manufacturing of bioplastic through digital fabrication a key tool in efforts to increase its applications in architecture and interior projects?"
