Just finished growing this new collection …..
Soon to be on its way to a Japanese restaurant in California.

What I loved most about the commission was the challenge of growing root materials for a specific design. It took some advance planning, timetabling of planting cycles and then the seeds (and co-collaborators 🌱) did wonderful work!
Feels good to see the material come alive with light✨

Somewhere at the intersection of computational design and biological growth - @filipponassetti x @rootfull 🌱

Behind the scenes we’ve been deliberately blending high-tech computational design with slow-tech biological growth. The result? “programmable” root growth that challenges the boundaries of traditional 3D printing.

Innovation that sits comfortably 🌱

FullSPRING is a 2-year research project between @rootfull and @delythfd to see just how far plant roots can grow. By guiding root systems through wool fibres, we create a durable, breathable, and entirely compostable furniture filling.
The innovation is at proof-of-concept stage so if you bring the kind of expertise that pushes ideas into reality, we’d love to talk. Read the full story of our 2-year journey at the link in our bio.

ROOT [2025] & ROOKE [1960s]
Bernard Rooke (b.1938), a renowned British artist and studio potter, is celebrated for his stunning brutalist ceramic lamp bases from the 1960s/70s. Many original lampshades have been lost over time, so I decided to grow new ones…

Roots grow down, always changing and adapting to their environment. They find the spaces in the wax templates and fill the voids.

GROWN FROM ROOT 🌱

The outcome of my QEST Scholarship (2024) is here! Today, I’m thrilled to reveal the new work that grew directly from my scholarship and collaboration with the talented @filipponassetti . The skills and insights I’ve gained have completely transformed Rootfull’s approach to innovation, creativity, and craft.

Here’s to QEST, celebrating 35 years of supporting UK craft by funding training and education for aspiring makers and strengthening the sector’s future.  QEST’s impact is significant, having awarded £7.4 million to almost 900 makers working across the UK in more than 130 different craft disciplines since being founded in 1990. From papermaking to biotextiles, ceramic conservation to sculpture, QEST supports both contemporary and traditional craft skills, as well as innovative techniques and practices.
Thank you @qestcraft 💎

REEF SHADE - grown from root
follow the link in bio for more info.

“The roots grow into furrows.
Creating forms that nature perfected eons ago.
Grown repeatedly and each iteration improves on the last - it’s a material designed and then grown for function”

This isn’t just a dress. It’s a portal to a world of possibility. 

Through deep research, exploration, and experimentation, we are rediscovering forgotten materials, inventing and cultivating new ones and developing an increasing array of innovative materials that will define regenerative fashion of the future.

It’s been a pleasure to collaborate with Silvia Acien to grow root materials for her designs. Thank you to the whole team who helped us blur the boundaries between craft, design, fashion and biology 💥
