Christiane Sauer: Softer matter (September 23, 2016)01:03:00

Christiane Sauer stresses that “textile is a technique, not a material.” She discusses how her office Formade with SCI-Arc alumna Claudia Lüling combines material research, exhibition design, and building design. She discusses research at the Berlin Weissensee School of Art, including several experiments in the use of soft textiles for structure, and textiles that are responsive and functional. She stresses the difficulty and necessity of overcoming the communication gap between the language and chemists and scientists and the language of designers.
