Fireless Skin: Mycelium Biocomposites
Abstract
Contribution: In the initial research and scoping phase (published in the Glass Fines commissioned report) the Engineering team developed a process growing Mycelium (a fungus) around the glass fines into moulds. Further testing revealed that the composite was inflammable and could be suited to insulation and fire retardant applications. The Design team developed these findings into an example of how this insulation material could be applied as a building product that had both highly valued aesthetic qualities and high insulation and fire retardant qualities. The resulting wall system made from interlocking terracotta tiles produced through a slip casting process results in internal cavities in which the mycelium and glass fines insulation material is placed.Significance: This work was shown as an NGV offering at Melbourne Design Week in an exhibition called Life and Death. The curated show contributed a range of speculative ideas and technologies around circular economy and sustainability themes. It was reviewed as part of Design Week for the Melbourne Age and Financial Review and promoted by the NGV as a Program Highlight.
