Designing the conditions for form to emerge
"Growing Together" is a living jewelry system that translates environmental conditions into biological growth, reframing design as a process of co-evolution and co-design between human, material, and non-human systems.

Form
3D printed jewelry with creavaces holding chlorella vulgaris algae and hydrogel, creating a symbiotic jewelry system
Form
Using controlled micro-topologies, hydrogel substrates, and parametric surface fields, algae growth is shaped through geometry rather than direct manipulation.
Method
Using controlled micro-topologies, hydrogel substrates, and parametric surface fields, algae growth is shaped through geometry rather than direct manipulation.
Method
If a product is grown rather than manufactured, it becomes adaptive, co-evolving, and regenerative. This work reframes the designer not as an author of form, but as a facilitator of living systems, challenging extractive, anthropocentric design models
